The patron saint of this church: Saint Andrew belongs to the circle of the twelve apostles whom Jesus Christ called to follow him. However, in biblical accounts, he is usually somewhat overshadowed by his far more famous brother, Saint Peter. The Gospels present the calling of the two brothers in different ways. According to the Gospel of John (John 1:40-42), Andrew is called first (together with another unnamed disciple). Later, he tells his brother that he has found the Messiah. The feast day of Saint Andrew is celebrated on November 30th in all major Christian denominations. The X-shaped white "St. Andrew's Cross," on which he was executed, forms the national flag of Scotland against a blue background and has also been incorporated into the national flag of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

Decent shop with hot food over the counter, plus some tea rooms.

I can recommend visiting the Long Man of Wilmington (it isn't an ancient Fertility symbol more an artificial 17th century tourist attraction, more fool, the faux American witches I saw there several years ago). However I can't recommend leaving the Long Man pub down the road, at 7.30pm, in January, several days after it snowed and then several days of negative temperatures froze it in place, and then climb straight up past it. There is a path but we decided that would take far too long to divert to it. It was not surprisingly steep.

Amazing trail along an old railway line route, it is smooth rolling and very enjoyable for all ages and abilities, there is an unfinished section that can also be ridden but be weary of random fences you may have to traverse.
