Accidentally burned down in the 1700s and there wasn’t the money or the population to justify rebuilding it so for 300 years since the church has been left as a picturesque ruin.

Keep your eyes peeled on the approach to Peddars Way as you first have to cross the dual carriage way into Thetford. Take your time...

An old ruined church. It is amazing that it is still standing! It looks like it is ready to collapse and fall in on itself and the murder of crows that appear to live there now (cue the Omen music).

St Andrew's is a breathtaking ruin on the outskirts of Roudham. The church was built in the 14th century but was destroyed by fire in 1736. The remains are a cherished local landmark but are cordoned off due to potentially dangerous loose masonry. However, it's still possible to admire the splendour of this place of worship and significant architectural details survive.
