Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a church of 1812, designed by Henry Moses Wood of Nottingham. A chancel and side chapel were added in 1871. A vestry was constructed in the late 19th century, with a 20th-century addition. The exterior is ashlar with slate roofs, with a later 20th-century addition in yellow brick with stone facing. The plan comprises a chancel, organ chamber, vestry, aisleless nave, and west tower.

The chancel and chapel are in a Gothic Revival style, featuring a plinth, buttresses, coped gables with crosses, and tile crests. The east end has a five-light window with geometrical tracery, while the north and south sides have single pointed arched windows, all with hood moulds. The organ chamber, to the south, has a dated round-arched panel above a round window. The north-facing vestry is gabled with a flat-roofed 20th-century addition. The nave, in a Gothick style, has six bays and pointed arched openings with hood moulds and a crenellated parapet. The south side has four windows with Y tracery, flanked to the west by a matching doorway and to the east by a traceried window with a priest’s door below. The north side has six windows with Y tracery, and the west end has two similar windows, blank.

The square west tower has three stages, diagonal buttresses, and a crenellated parapet. It features a pointed arched west door and, above it, a traceried round window on three sides. The bell stage has a pointed arched opening on each side with Y tracery. A single-cell square projection with a hipped roof is located in the north-west angle.

The interior is rendered. The chancel has a heavily moulded arch with a hood mould and triple marble shafts, with segmental pointed openings leading to an altar to the south and a door to the north. It has a pointed arched barrel vault with wooden ribs. The windows contain 19th-century stained glass. The nave has a moulded cornice, flat ceiling, pointed arched doors, and an internal porch. A 19th-century gallery has been removed, and a 20th-century screen with stained glass panels has been inserted at the west end. Fittings are mainly from the late 19th century, including an octagonal ashlar font and pulpit. A wooden reredos was added in 1927. Memorials include a Gothic marble tablet dating to 1840, and a traceried panelled wooden war memorial constructed around 1918.
