Ilketshall St Andrew
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Ilketshall St Andrew The church is one of the "Twelve Saints" parishes of Ilketshall and South Elmham. Like many, the church lies remote from many of the houses that it serves as there is no village centre.
There is an informative web page here http://www.suffolkchurches.co.uk/ilkandrew.html To quote just one paragraph from it: "This grand round-towered church sits at a bend in the road with the former rectory for company. As is common in this part of East Anglia, the tower has an octagonal bell stage, and although some round towers were built from scratch in the 13th and 14th centuries, it is likely that this top was built onto a Norman tower, probably contemporary with the body of the nave, which despite the acquisition of later Perpendicular windows is essentially a long Norman church. The chancel was probably added at the time the tower was topped off. A good modern statue of St Andrew gazes out from the niche on the porch, which was built right on the eve of the Anglican reformation. The graveyard he looks out on is a delight: there has been almost no clearance of the older gravestones, and it must be a genealogist's dream." Simon Knott, July 2008 |
