Kirk Andreas, St Andrews Church

Archaeology

The parish church at Andreas was built in 1802, replacing an earlier church to the north. It was built with stone from Sulby Glen and likely stands on the site of an earlier early-medieval keeill. A 120-foot bell tower was added in 1869 but was reduced in height during the Second World War and has not since been restored to its original height. The churchyard contains twenty-three Commonwealth war graves from the Second World War.
