Old St Andrew's Church is a ruined building in Bishopthorpe, a village south of York in England.
The first church on the site was built in the early 13th century. It was cruciform, and had a central tower. By 1768, it was in very poor condition, and was demolished on the orders of Robert Hay Drummond, with only its foundations retained. He commissioned Thomas Atkinson to design a new church, which was largely built of brick, and retained the cruciform plan. Its windows were relocated from the chapel at Cawood Castle, and their glass was designed by William Wailes. However, located next to the River Ouse, it regularly flooded. [1] [2]
In 1842, Edward Venables-Vernon-Harcourt paid £2,000 to replace the roof and floor, add a south vestry, and porches to each transept. He also built a stone wall on the riverbank, to reduce the risk of floods. Gas lighting was added in 1868, a new organ was installed in 1870, and the pews were replaced in 1872. In 1892, the church suffered a further major flood, and it was decided to build a new St Andrew's Church, away from the river. The new church was completed in 1899, and the old church was largely demolished, with just the west front retained. [1] In 1985, the ruin was Grade II listed. [3]
The ruin is built of brick, covered in Magnesian Limestone. It is in the Gothick style, including a Tudor-style central doorway, with a three-light pointed window above. Other than the west front, the foundations of the nave, transepts and chancel survive, as does the head of one window. [3]

St Andrew the Apostle is an Anglican church in Worthing, West Sussex, England. Built between 1885 and 1886 in the Early English Gothic style by Sir Arthur Blomfield, "one of the last great Gothic revivalists", the church was embroiled in controversy as soon as it was founded. During a period of religious unrest in the town, theological tensions within Anglicanism between High church Anglo-Catholics and Low church Anglicans were inflamed by what the latter group saw as the church's "idolatrous" Roman Catholic-style fittings—in particular, a statue of the Virgin Mary which was seized upon by opponents as an example of a reversion to Catholic-style worship in the Church of England. The "Worthing Madonna" dispute delayed the consecration of the church by several years. English Heritage has listed the building at Grade C for its architectural and historical importance, and the adjacent vestry and vicarage are listed separately at Grade II.
