St Andrew's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576756 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576771 built of flint and freestone, dates from the 13th century. The oldest feature of the church is the font which is believed to be 12th century. Beside it, in a glass case in the lady chapel, lies the painted wooden effigy of Sir Robert Du Bois > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576795 who died in 1311. The figure is carved out of a single piece of oak and what remains of the paint is believed to be original. The effigy is universally acknowledged as being one of the finest examples of its kind and was a showpiece at the Age of Chivalry exhibition in London in 1987. A stone effigy of the church's first priest, William Du Bois, lies in the north-east corner of the chancel > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576783. The chancel panelling and reredos > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576785 are of Jacobean oak, the centre piece of the reredos is an iron cast reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's 'Last Supper'. The east window contains three medieval stained glass roundels > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1576788 depicting saints. |
