St Andrew's Church, Newcastle upon Tyne, Medieval church in Newcastle upon Tyne, England.

St Andrew's Church features circular pillars, chevron work above arches, and a mixture of pointed arch window designs from the 12th century.

The composer Charles Avison and portrait painter William Bell found their final resting place within the church grounds in the late 18th century.
