Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a church built between 1892 and 1901 by Demaine and Brierley. It is constructed of stone with slate roofs and features a single vessel nave and chancel, lean-to aisles, a west tower with north and south porches, a south chapel, and a north organ loft and vestry. The church is designed in the Free Perpendicular style.

The nave has five bays, with aisles that include parapets and elliptical-headed windows with three lights, as well as two-light straight-headed clerestory windows. The west tower features a west entrance and a five-light window, along with paired straight-headed bell-openings that have tracery heads and an embattled parapet. The chancel is highlighted by a seven-light east window flanked by clasping buttresses.

Inside, the church has arcades supported by octagonal piers and an arch braced collar roof. There are parclose screens leading to the organ loft and chapel, along with a painted reredos. The octagonal pulpit made of alabaster includes figures under canopies, and there are stained glass windows in the east and west. Notable items include the gravestone of P. Naylor, an engine driver from 1842, which features a locomotive in relief and a poem, and a hatchment for Colonel T.R. Legh from 1797. Additionally, there is an 18th-century wrought iron altar rail.
