St Andrew's Church, Church Road, Hove

St Andrew's Church is an Anglican church in Church Road, Hove, in the English city of Brighton and Hove. It is usually referred to as St Andrew (Old Church) to distinguish it from another St Andrew's Church in Waterloo Street, elsewhere in Hove. It served as Hove's parish church for several centuries until 1892, although the building was in a state of near-ruin until Hove began to grow from an isolated village to a popular residential area in the early 19th century.

Famous quotes containing the words church and/or hove:

    Isn’t this your life? That ancient kiss
    still burning out your eyes? Isn’t this defeat
    so accurate, the church bell simply seems
    a pure announcement: ring and no one comes?
    Richard Hugo (1923–1982)

    But she rode it out,
    That old rose-house,
    She hove into the teeth of it,
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
