St Andrew's Church, Arthingworth
St Andrew's Church is an Anglican Church and the parish church of Arthingworth. It is a Grade II* listed building[1] and stands on the north side of Braybrooke Road. There is no reference to a church or priest in the entry for the parish in the Domesday Book, which was compiled in 1086.[2] This may indicate the absence of a church building at that stage or, alternatively, only the absence of a resident priest. The main structure of the present building was erected in the 12th and 14th centuries. Restoration was carried out in the 19th century. The church consists of a nave, north and south aisles, chancel and west tower. A detailed description appears on the Historic England website.[1] The parish registers survive from 1650 and, apart from those currently in use, are kept at Northamptonshire Record Office.[3] Details of its location and opening times can be found on the Record Office website.[4] Arthingworth is part of a united Benefice along with East Farndon, Harrington and Oxendon. Each parish retains its own church building.[5] NotesWikimedia Commons has media related to St Andrew's Church, Arthingworth.
