Description
The Church of St Peter is a Grade I listed building located in Barton upon Humber. It consists of two churches joined lengthways. The western part features a nave from the 9th century and a tower from the 10th century, making it one of the earliest and most significant examples of Saxon architecture. The tower displays pilaster strip work and long and short work. The original Saxon chancel was demolished to accommodate the church built to the east of the Saxon tower.
The medieval section of the church includes a nave, aisles, and chancel. Notable features include a fine clerestory dating from around 1430 and a 15th-century rood screen that was restored in 1898. The east window contains 13th-century glass depicting St George and St James, while the north aisle has an east rood window from around 1430. The chancel features a 15th-century effigy, along with wall monuments from the late 16th and early 19th centuries.
The Church of St Peter, along with the churchyard cross, wall, and The Vicarage, forms a group with Tyrwhitt Hall.
