St Andrew's Church, Eakring, Notts.
The Grade II* listed Parish Church on the east side of Kirklington Road is seen here on the approach into the centre of the village. The current building dates back to the C13th, the oldest part being the tower which has a C13th base and a C15th top storey. The building was restored in Elizabethan times, next in the C17th century on the instruction of the Rev. William Mompesson, who widened the nave and added the two porches, and then again in 1881.

St Andrew's Church, Eakring, Notts.
This Grade II* listed gem is seen here from the junction with Church Lane opposite. The Rev. Wm Mompesson (1639-1709) was ordained in 1660 and became Domestic Chaplain to Sir George Savile of Rufford. Following this he was given a curacy at Wellow by Sir George, was married in 1662 and in due course he and his wife had two children. In 1663 he acquired the better 'living' of Bilsthorpe, Notts. and soon after was offered the living of Eyam, Derbyshire which was also in the gift of Savile. The Mompessons arrived there in 1664, but the following year the village of Eyam was struck by bubonic plague. The plague accounted for about 260 deaths of the village, including Mompesson's wife. During the plague, Mompesson organised the isolation of Eyam, something that resulted in more deaths within the village but halted the spread of the plague to other villages. In 1669, he married a widow who had been a neighbour at Wellow and in the same year was offered the living of Eakring by Savile when it became vacant. He was installed as Rector of Eakring in January 1671.
