Andrew Tawn

Andrew Tawn is Rector of Addingham, a Yorkshire Dales village tucked away in the valley below Ilkley Moor.

Lancashire born Andrew moved to Essex at the age of seven where he would go on long bicycle rides through the Essex countryside looking in vain for the hills he missed.

He went on to read English at Cambridge University where he was a choral scholar in the chapel choir. And it was during this time he felt called to ordained ministry but he chose to train and work as an English teacher first to gain some experience of life (Andrew says he learnt more from his pupils than they from him).

Andrew is married with two daughters. In his spare time he writes, paints, breeds pigs, rings bells and walks the local hills.
