Since the demolition of the transepts and chancel, the tower has served as the chancel. An addition at W end was built in 1931. Romanesque sculpture is found on the S nave doorway, on a column reset in the W gable and in the tower and transept arches.

- 3. St Andrew, Steyning, Sussex, England

Formerly Collegiate church, now parish church This church comprises a W tower, a 12thc. aisled nave and a 19thc. chancel. The demolition of the medieval choir, transepts and central tower, dilapidated since the Dissolution, was begun in 1577 and completed in the 17thc. A new chancel and W tower, which occupies the site of the W bay(s) of the nave, were then constructed. What was lost at the E end must have been largely of early 12thc. date, judging from the surviving W piers and arch of the crossing and the E arches of the S and N aisles which formerly opened into the transepts. The nave was erected later in the 12thc. The present chancel is of the 19thc.
