"St Andrew's Church, Denton is a Grade I listed. Restored in 1888, it is mainly Perpendicular in style. In the south aisle is a table-tomb with an effigy of John Blyth, his wife Margaret and his six children; a monument to Richard Welby (d. 1713) is in the north aisle.
The church originally had only four bells, but now has six. The bells were re-hung in 1855 by Denton wheelwright and machine-maker John Caborn. In 1994 the bells were again re-hung in metal frames by Hayward Mills Associates."
