ADDITIONAL TO THE BROCHURE: FIRST WEEKEND
This church has been omitted from the brochure, but is taking part in the festival on the first weekend. Please support them with a visit.
Unlike many of the local church buildings, St Andrew’s is not built of Spilsby Green Sand Stone but a local honey-coloured Lime Stone. Mainly because the Medieval sandstone was “crumbling”, as reported in 1834, the Church was rebuilt in the mid-1800s (the architect was George Edward Street) and restored fully by 1886.
The rounded east wall is unusual and gives a taste of early Christian worship, as the Altar nestles into the curved shape. Above, the fine stain glass window teaches the faith when viewed with the light flooding through from inside by day and outside by night. Interesting fetchers and monuments.
Opening Times: 5-6th September
Saturday 10am-5pm
Sunday 10am-5pm
