Church of St Andrew, Church Lane, Little Massingham - King's Lynn and West Norfolk

Parish church, C14 and C15. Flint rubble, dressings of squared and knapped flint, stone, red brick and red clunch. West tower, south porch, three-bay nave with clerestory, north and south aisles, and chancel. Three-stage tower with stone plinth and four offset buttresses on west face only. The building was a victim of heritage crime. Although the Historic England COVID-19 grant allowed a number of urgent works to be completed, the felt roof coverings remain on the south aisle and chancel and porch where a number of the abutment details are suspect. Some cracks require monitoring.
