Description
The Church of St Andrew is a parish church built in 1880 by Herbert Green of Norwich, located on the site of a medieval church of similar design. It is constructed in the Decorated Gothic style, featuring a nave, chancel, and south porch. The exterior is made of rounded random flints with parapet gables and limestone dressings. A stone gabled bellcote sits atop the west gable, housing a bell dated 1710. Below the bellcote, there is a rose window and a west doorway. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has arch-braced collar-beam trusses, alternating with unique trusses shaped like a trefoil, with braces that spring from diagonal pendants. Inside, there is a richly carved oak reredos, and the two panels displaying the Commandments and the Lord's Prayer are likely from the 18th or early 19th century. This church is a good and complete example of a modest High Victorian church, featuring well-designed fixtures and fittings.
