Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church built in 1861, incorporating some medieval fragments. It is constructed from green sandstone rubble with limestone ashlar dressings. The roof is slate, featuring stone coped gables and finials, along with a gabled west bellcote that has a pointed opening for the bell, complete with a hood mould and label stops. The church consists of a nave with a bellcote, a small porch, and a chancel. A plinth runs around the entire structure.

The west front showcases two-stage diagonal buttresses and a pair of lancet windows with a small vesica above, all adorned with hood moulds and label stops. The north side of the nave features two pairs of lancets interspersed with two-stage buttresses, with similar hood moulds and label stops on the windows. The north side of the chancel is plain, while the east end has triple lancets, the central one being taller, also with a hood mould and label stops. The south side of the chancel has two lancets, and the south side of the nave has two pairs of lancets, all with hood moulds and label stops.

A slightly projecting gabled porch on the west side contains a pointed doorway with a continuous chamfered surround and double plank doors. Inside, there is a late 13th-century chancel arch with a pointed double chamfered head, supported by three large responds with semi-circular moulded capitals on each side, and three smaller medieval shafts inserted beneath. The east window features re-used 13th-century nook shafts, hood moulds, and label stops.

The church also contains a plain octagonal font from the 15th century with a simply cusped panelled pediment, along with 19th-century altar rail, pews, lectern, and roofs. An ashlar monument to George Dunham, who died in 1725, is set into the south wall, decorated with simple bands and motifs of daisy heads, lilies, and thistles. There is a gravestone in the nave for Mary Mosely, who died in 1742, and two long framed pieces of embroidery depicting the 119th Psalm.
