Church of St Peter and St Paul

The Church of St Peter and St Paul is a parish church dating from the 14th century, which was enlarged and heavily restored in 1861 by Henry Parsons of London. It is constructed of squared stone and ashlar, featuring a Welsh slate roof on the chancel and low-pitched lead roofs on the nave and aisles, which are mostly hidden behind a battlemented parapet. The church includes a tower and spire, a nave with aisles, a north porch made of stone, and a south porch built with wooden trellis-work, as well as a chancel and chancel chapels.

The tower has three stages, with angle buttresses, moulded string courses, and two-light bell-openings. The west doorway is adorned with continuous mouldings and fleuron decoration within a square surround. The spire is topped with three tiers of traceried and gabled lucarnes. The nave consists of four bays, which was lengthened by one bay in 1861, featuring an arcade of double-chamfered arches that retain some original painting of tendrils. These arches are supported by clusters of four shafts, with polygonal abaci on the north side and quatrefoil abaci on the south. The window tracery is Decorated on the north side and Perpendicular on the south, both of which have been completely renewed. The 19th-century roof complements the structure.

The chancel, entirely rebuilt in 1861, is designed in the Decorated style and is separated from the chapels by an arcade on black marble columns with naturalistic capitals. Inside, there is a 16th-century pulpit and a font designed by G.E Street in 1853 for All Saints, Cottesbrooke, Northants. Additionally, four small Norman demi-figures depicting Christ blessing, a saint blessing, and two angels were discovered during 19th-century work and are now positioned on either side of the south door and the east window of the north chapel.
