St Andrew and St Patrick, Elveden

Image: © Stephen Richards Taken: Unknown

A medieval flint church which largely owes its current appearance to enlargements of 1869 and of 1904-06, the latter by W.D. Caroe. The west tower, in the foreground, dates from c1421. Caroe added the south tower, in 1922, just visible in the background on the right, and connected it to the old church by a cloister (seen here Image). Caroe's style is an idiosyncratic and very ornate Gothic, christened "Art Nouveau Gothic" by Pevsner. Grade II* listed.
