St Andrew's Church, Aikton

The church is built in red sandstone rubble. Many of the stones used in its construction were taken from Hadrian's Wall.[2] The chancel roof is in Welsh slate, while the roof of the nave is in sandstone slates. The plan of the church consists of a four-bay nave with a south aisle and a gabled porch, and a two-bay chancel with a gabled vestry to the north. At the west end of the church is a double bellcote.[2] In the north wall are lancet windows, the east window has two lights and there is a lancet window in the vestry. In the west wall is a blocked window.[2] In the churchyard is a War Memorial commemorating servicemen in the parish who lost their lives in the First World War,[5]

The roof dates from the 15th century; it is an open timber roof consisting of four king post trusses with side struts. The chancel arch is Norman in style.[2] The font dates from the 14th century. It consists of a square bowl on a pedestal; the bowl has trefoils and plain rounded decorations. In the aisle is a steeply pointed trefoiled piscina.[2][6] In the porch is a 13th-century coffin lid, inscribed with the carving of a sword.[7] The organ was built by J. Charles Lee of Coventry.[8]
