St Andrew's Church is a redundant Anglican church standing in an isolated position in fields about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to the north of the village of Woodwalton (often Wood Walton) in Huntingdonshire, Cambridgeshire, England. It is about 200 metres (219 yd) to the east of the East Coast Main Line and is visible from the passing trains.[1] The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building,[2] and is under the care of the Friends of Friendless Churches.[3] As of 2010 it is not regularly open to visitors because its foundations are moving and it is unsafe.[4]
