St Andrews Church is located on the corner of Aycliffe Road and Buckton Road. The church is set back from the road with grassed areas to the front and sides of the building. The main entrance is to the eastern side where there is also a small area of hardstanding for parking. This section of Aycliffe Road is separated from the main Aycliffe Road by a corridor of grass containing a number of trees. The site is level with the church set in the southwest corner. The existing church building is in poor condition having not been in use since 2018. A considerable refurbishment scheme would be required to bring it back into use.The structure is a single storey brick with pitched roof and a flat roof area to the side with single glazed metal framed windows. The church dates from 1962. The accommodation is simple in content having the primary hall which is used as the sanctuary and a second smaller meeting room.
