Church Of St Andrew

The Church of St Andrew is a church dating back to the 13th century, with the upper storey of the tower, aisles, porch, and part of the chancel rebuilt around 1769. The church underwent significant restoration, re-windowing, and chancel rebuilding in 1877 by E.F. Law, which included a new vestry and organ chamber. It is constructed of coursed squared ironstone with a tile roof at the east end and porch, while the rest of the church features a copper roof.

The layout includes a chancel, vestry, organ chamber, nave, north and south aisles, a south porch, and a west tower. The 2-bay chancel has a three-light Decorated style east window and a two-light reticulated window to the south, along with a vestry to the north-west featuring a one-light window with a cusped head. There are three similar windows to the north and a vestry door with a Caernarvon arched head, as well as an organ chamber to the south-west with similar windows. The nave has a clerestory with coupled windows, and the north and south eaves are moulded. The north aisle contains two three-light Perpendicular style windows with straight heads, while the south aisle has a similar window to the south and a south door with a chamfered stone surround and segmental head. The south porch features a chamfered and hollow-chamfered doorway.

The two-stage west tower has a two-light Decorated style west window, a blocked window to the south-east at clerestory level with a chamfered stone surround, and bell openings with round arched heads and plain Y-tracery, along with string courses at sill level, above and at the base of the battlemented parapet.

Inside, the chancel features a massive reredos and a stained glass east window. The nave has 2-bay arcades with circular piers on both the north and south sides, simple moulded capitals, double-chamfered arches, and semi-circular responds. All roofs date from the 19th century. There are several 18th and 19th-century wall monuments, including one in the tower with Ionic pilasters framing a round-headed arch inscribed to Richard Freeman, who died in 1749, complete with a carved apron, cartouche with arms above, and a fluted and gadrooned urn finial.
