Church of St Peter

The Church of St Peter, originally a chapel and school, dates back to 1627. It features a bell turret and vestry added later, with restoration occurring in 1877. The building is constructed from red sandstone ashlar and has a red tile roof with a pierced ridge. It consists of a 5-bay nave and chancel in one range, along with a south porch and vestry. The corners and bays of the nave are supported by diagonal buttresses, and the bays are divided by stepped buttresses. The stone copings and finials add to its character.

The church has 3-light chamfered stone mullioned windows with round-headed lights. The porch projects under a gable that is coped and finialled. A massive chamfered lintel sits above a restored studded oak board door with planted strap hinges. Above the door, in a cyma-moulded surround, are the arms and a plaque that reads: "Thomas Moulsone of ye citty of London, Alderman, built this chappell upon his owne cost and charge Ano Dmi 1627." To the right of the main entrance is a priest's door in a chamfered surround. The east window is a blocked 6-light mullioned and transomed window, while the west end features a chamfered stone doorcase with the original studded oak 4-board door and a 4-light window above.

Inside, the church has a simple yet striking design, with a hammer-beam roof that springs from stone corbels, featuring carved consoles and pendants, along with wind-braced purlins. There is no chancel arch. Some pews contain re-used 17th and 18th-century panelling, and other fittings include a painted bas relief reredos from the early 20th century.

Thomas Moulson, who was born in Hargrave and later became Lord Mayor of London, built the chapel, which included a school until 1833.
