St Andrew's Church, Farnham, Medieval parish church in Farnham, England
St Andrew's Church is a stone building in Farnham with a 115-foot tower and a 15th-century nave featuring intricate architectural details. The chancel dates from the 12th century and adds to the building's layered design.
A 7th-century Saxon church once stood beneath the current building and was first documented in the Domesday Book of 1086. The present structure evolved and expanded over many centuries.
The church is known for its Gospel Collective choir that rehearses and performs every other Tuesday evening. This musical tradition shapes how the community gathers and worships together.
You can visit the church daily through Upper Church Lane by contacting the parish office for opening information and visit details. The office team can help with questions about access and timings.
The churchyard holds the tomb of William Cobbett, a prominent 19th-century writer and activist. Inside the church stands a memorial to Augustus Toplady, who composed the well-known hymn Rock of Ages.
