Over het museum

Once a glorious medieval church, St Andrew's now lies a picturesque ruin by the sea, with only the lofty 14th century tower, preserved as a sea mark and a curtain of original walling surviving.  A smaller thatched roof church, built in 1672 when the inhabitants were given permission to dismantle the older church and still in use, nestles inside the ruins.  Hopefully the rapid encroaching of the sea will leave this lovely place to be enjoyed for a few more decades.

    My late husband and I ventured to this church on the way home from a visit to Norfolk. The place has a feeling of defiance and mystery! I could feel the eyes of previous congregations staring at me and sense the uneasy atmosphere of disappointment that this proud church has endured such neglect over time. The foundation slabs...laid down hundreds of years ago... by medieval working men...who expected the house of God to last eternity. I'm not sure that it will unfortunately.
