St Andrew, Hampton, Evesham, Worcestershire
(Click on an image for a larger version)
The plan of St Andrew's is unique among churches in the Vale of Evesham, and suggests an original Norman foundation. The present building dates as a whole from the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries. The porch was added a little later. The masonry is original, except for the re-facing of the East wall in 1900, and the addition in 1904, of the North Aisle, now used as the vestry and organ space.The two diagonal buttresses at the East end, and the crosses on the East and West gables are modern.
The bronze coloured metal has been used to create an effective and eye-catching design.
