The parish is centred round the ruinous church remains of St Andrew's Church. The church was abandoned in 1736 after a destructive fire, although it remains to this day with all the walls remaining at their original height, the structure of the building is very weak.[1] The church remains a significant monument in the landscape, however due to its weak condition, it had to be cordoned off due to the danger of it collapsing. Negotiations for the repair of the church are in progress.
