The next parish to Oakington, Girton also has a church of Saint Andrew. That's five in the district. He got about a bit, did Scotland's patron saint! This is the most crenellated church in the area, and neat but austere inside. Refurbishment took place in 1853, and signs of repair can be seen on the north side. Above the porch is a small room for private prayer; it is accessed by a steep and dangerous staircase lit by a quatrefoil window seen in pic. 5. It was full of junk, including painted wood triptyches. The churchyard is open to the world - no fence or wall.
