St Andrew the Great, Medieval church building in central Cambridge, England

The church features a Neo-Gothic architectural design with a prominent spire, large windows, and detailed stone carvings throughout the exterior and interior spaces.

Originally established in 1200, the structure underwent reconstruction in 1842-43 under architect Ambrose Poynter, who implemented the East Anglian architectural style.

The church maintains memorial tablets dedicated to Captain James Cook and his family, including his wife Elizabeth who rests within the building grounds.

The building holds multiple Sunday services at 9:45 AM, 11:30 AM during university terms, and 5:00 PM, with dedicated programs for different age groups.

The heating chamber contains preserved 12th-century double capitals, representing some of the oldest architectural elements in the structure.
