St Andrews Church Tower
St Andrews Gardens were officially opened on 5th June 1953 by the Mayor of Worcester to commemorate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The gardens were the previous site of St Andrew's Church and Churchyard. The Church, believed to be dating back to the 12th Century, was demolished due to it's dipidated condition, and the tower and spire are the only reminders of this. The Tower was built in the 15th Century and the spire, which was rebuilt in 1751 rise to a height of 245.5 ft. The Spire is locally known as 'The Glover's Needle' due to it's shape and Worcester's association with the glovemaking industry. http://www.worcester.gov.uk/index.php?id=1723
