East Window
East Window
The east window, which seems to have been reglazed in the Victorian era, has no pictures or images, but has three 'bulls eye' roundels unusual in church windows.
St Andrew's church, Minting

Grade II*listed

The church dates from around 1200, with further work in the 15th century. It was restored in 1863 by Ewan Christian.
The church is built of Greenstone and has a western bellcote, nave with north aisle, chancel, south porch and vestry.
The west end of the church has a large buttress supporting the bellcote with windows either side.
The nave and aisles have been rebuilt in 1863, the chancel has mediaeval fabric with brick patching, the east window dating from the 15th century.

The three Bay north arcade dates from around 1200 but the piers and responds have been rebuilt in the 19th century.
The roofs and fittings are 19th century including the font.
On the east wall of the nave are fragments of an early 13th century carved cross.

The chancel still retain some mediaeval fabric and the east window dates from the 15th century.
The south porch dates from the 19th century, as do the fittings and the roof.
The screen was reconstructed in the 19th century and contains some 15th century panels.
There is also a 12th century octagonal font which was recovered from below the altar in 1930. There is also a modern font with wooden cover.
There is a small one manual organ.
There is no stained-glass in the church.

In 2008 there was an earthquake in Lincolnshire which caused damage to the bellcote. This had to be removed in rebuilt at a cost of some £23,000.
