St Andrew's Church, Buckland

The church structure incorporates flint walls with stone dressings, featuring a three-bay nave, broad south aisle, two-bay chancel, and west tower with diagonal buttresses.

The construction of St Andrew's Church began with the nave and chancel in 1348, followed by additions of the tower in 1400 and south aisle in the late 1400s.

The interior contains fifteenth-century brass monuments, medieval stained glass windows, and carved stone angels playing instruments throughout the decorated space.

Located at the highest point of Buckland village, the church opens daily from 10 AM to 4 PM, with Royston railway station situated 4.5 miles away.

The church features a single-manual organ built in 1870 by Henry Jones and Son, positioned within an organ chamber added during the 1880s renovations.
