Local Heritage at St Andrew’s

Open every day (daylight hours)

Clock-sm

You are welcome to visit and explore the church and churchyard during daylight hours. 

If you bring your smartphone or tablet you can access our free digital heritage guide to the church and additional information about the village and the people who have lived here over the past 800 years. 

We also have a paper leaflet highlighting key features within the church, a church quiz sheet (age 9+) prepared for St Andrew’s by NADFAS (National Association of Decorative and Fine Arts Societies) and a buzzy bee paper trail hunt around the church for younger children with parents or carer. 

These can be found in the children’s corner to the right of the church as you enter.

Coffee Mornings at St Andrew’s

We hold coffee mornings several times a year in the church when villagers can get together for a chat over coffee and cakes. Visitors are welcome to join us.

Our next coffee mornings will take place in the church from 10.30am to 12 noon on: 
– Wednesday 22nd January 2025
– Wednesday 19th February 2025

If you require any information about the coffee mornings and would like to be included on a circulation list for them, please contact Karen (01249 782854 or karen@shrubhouse.com)

2025 Major Building Works at St Andrew’s

Roof Works
We have embarked on our planning, fundraising and preparations for urgent major roof and related building repair works due to start in Spring 2025. The south aspect of the church building will be scaffolded and screened off while works are going on. While some occasional closures to visitors may be necessary for health and safety purposes, for example when the scaffolding is being erected, we plan to keep access to the church and churchyard open. For more details about the schedule and works, and how to make a donation if you can help us, please go the Make History page.

Keep a look out for information about our Sunday services at 11am on the 1st and 3rd Sundays in the month and other events such as coffee mornings and Heritage Open Days.

The church interior can be a welcome cool retreat in hot weather, and around the church there is plenty of local craftsmanship on display and information about the church and local community and its history. Bring your smartphone and try out our free digital heritage tour. 

Cards and local walk guidebooks can be purchased inside the church.
