Description

The Church of St. Andrew, built in 1750 and restored in 1871, features a west tower added during the restoration. The church has a symmetrical cross plan made up of five squares, with one window on each outside wall, except for the south side of the southern arm. It has an old tile roof and walls constructed of squared flintwork, with flush red brick quoins at the internal corners. The outer corners are also quoined on each face and strengthened by brick pilasters, which are flush on the gable face and project on the return. The plinth has a cavetto stone moulding.

The tower is in the Perpendicular style and includes a crenellated parapet, a weather band, a traceried bell-stage opening, diagonal stepped buttresses, a plain west door, and a stairway attached to the north-west corner of the western arm. The church has six stone windows with three lights and cusped heads within a rectangular frame, likely part of the original design, and four windows (the east window and those in the northern arm) feature painted heads, hoodmoulds, and tracery from 1871.

Inside, the north and south arms have raised floors accessed by central flights of steps. There is a screened area for a vestry on the north side, which results in a higher window. The south side end wall displays two fine monuments with lettered panels enclosed by pedimented Corinthian pilasters. The eastern arm features 18th-century altar rails with twisted balusters and end statues, above a step, along with linen-fold panelling to cill height and painted panels depicting the Commandments and the Lord's Prayer above.

Additionally, there is a late Gothic altar tomb from the 16th century and five large, finely-lettered floor slabs from the early 18th century. The pulpit, lectern, and font are of Victorian design. The timber-framed roof is arch-braced, with two bays in each arm.
