Church of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a late Perpendicular church with some alterations from the 16th century and a tower dated 1826. It is constructed of ashlar red sandstone and features a Welsh slate roof with parallel ridges. The church comprises a 7-bay nave and chancel in one range, a north aisle, a two-stage west tower, and a south porch. The bays of the nave and chancel are divided by buttresses and have broad three-light windows with four-centred arched heads and label moulds. The second bay includes a gabled porch with an open timber truss and a moulded doorcase that has a hood mould, containing the original studded and panelled door with a four-centred head. Above the doorcase is a niche. The sixth bay features a simpler priest's door and a window with two round-headed lights. The east window has four lights in the Perpendicular style, and the north aisle has a similar treatment.

The squat tower sits on a plinth and has two bands, a cornice with a castellated parapet, and crocketed finials. It contains two lancets with label moulds, the upper one being louvred. A plaque on the tower reads "ERECTED 1826, Thos. Gerard, Wm. Gerard, C. Wardens." The west side has a round-headed two-light chamfered mullioned window with a worn inscribed lintel and a plaque from 1684 above, reading "JOHN PARSEFALE AND RICHARD GAMON, WARDENS."

Inside, there is an arcade of six four-centred double-chamfered arches on octagonal piers leading to the north aisle. The nave and chancel feature a much-restored hammerbeam roof. The interior boasts a wealth of carved woodwork by Rev. Toogood, the incumbent from 1907 to 1946, who copied styles and used some 15th-century pieces. This includes the chancel screen and parclose for the Barnston Chapel in the north aisle, as well as the choir, reredos, and box pews. There is also a notable raised pulpit with an ornate sounding board and hourglass, along with an adjacent two-decker reader's desk dated 1722 in the north aisle. At the rear of the nave is an earlier churchwarden's pew with a hood on twisted columns inscribed: "Thomas Kelsall, Theophilus Kelsall, Churchwardens Ano Dom 1697." Additionally, there is an octagonal stone font and fragments of early glass, one dated 1500, located in the nave.
