St Andrew in Cransley is a beautiful Grade I listed church standing in the picturesque Northamptonshire countryside. It is the parish church for Cransley and the neighbouring village of Mawsley and it is steeped in a rich history stretching back to at least 1226. Today the church holds regular weekly services and comes alive for festivals and holidays.
Mawsley is a newly built village to the south-west of Great Cransley. Although the village lacks a church building, there is an active church community here and services regularly take place at The Centre at Mawsley.
