The south side of St Andrew's church, Denton, is decorated with Gargoyles and chimera, some of which are 'a little unusual'.
The church dates from the 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, and 16th centuries, with restoration of 1887-8 by Sir Arthur Blomfield. The tower was restored 1904, by Mr. Weir, architect. Squared ironstone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings, lead roofs behind battlemented parapets throughout.
