St Andrew's Church, Medieval parish church in Burnham-on-Sea, England
St Andrew's Church features a 78-foot tower that leans noticeably to the north due to its foundation settling in the soft ground beneath.
The church was constructed in the early 14th century, with substantial modifications and additions made throughout the 15th and 16th centuries.
The interior contains marble carvings originally created by Sir Christopher Wren for the Palace of Whitehall, later transferred to this Somerset church.
The church maintains regular religious services and community gatherings, with the building located on Victoria Street in central Burnham-on-Sea.
The church tower served as a lighthouse in the 18th century with an installed light to guide fishing boats safely into the harbor.
