St Andrew, South Thoresby, South Thoresby

Dedicated to St Andrew

St Andrew was one of the first disciples to follow Jesus, called while working as a fisherman with his brother, St Peter. Tradition holds he was martyred on an X-shaped cross — the design that appears on Scotland’s flag, as he is that nation’s patron saint. His feast day is 30 November.

Built in 1728 of red brick, St Andrew’s occupies a quiet spot on the eastern edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, in good walking country. Its clear windows let in plenty of natural light, making the church a particularly inviting stop for visitors and walkers seeking a moment of rest.
