Crosby Garrett: St Andrew - Church Heritage Record 607012

  • Description

    "The church is cut into the summit of Arklow Hill where it dramatically overlooks the village. Not surprisingly given the splendid location, the current church with its C11/C12 origins is the descendant of an earlier structure. Evidence of a Saxon building can be seen in the narrow round-topped blocked arch set into the chancel arch. The layers of history and gradual change is fascinating, adds to the intrigue of the church and provides textbook examples of styles including Norman capitals decorated with leaves, animals and human heads and Perpendicular ogee windows....."
