Church of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church located on Church Lane in Counthorpe and Creeton. It dates from the late 12th century to the 13th century, with later additions in the late 13th century, 15th century, and alterations in 1830 when the chancel was shortened and in 1853 when the nave was rebuilt. The church is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and features a Collyweston slate roof.

The building includes a western tower, nave, south chapel, and chancel. The three-stage late 13th-century tower has two string courses, moulded eaves, and a corbel table, topped with a broach spire that features oversized two-light 13th-century gabled lucarnes on two storeys facing the main directions. The belfry has paired lights with round shafts, floriate capitals, and moulded hoods. The west wall of the tower has a lancet window at the ground stage and a smaller similar window above. A reused 10th-century grave slab with interlace can be found in the northwest nave quoin. The north wall contains two 19th-century windows with paired lights and sexfoils, while the east window is also from the 19th century and features three cusped lights.

The south chapel has entasised quoins and shows evidence of a narrow early door, suggesting it may have originally served as a porticus. The south wall includes an early 13th-century window with plate tracery and three cusped lights, as well as a lancet window with a moulded hood. The south door has been recut and features a moulded hood with human head label stops. Further west, there is a 15th-century three-light window with cusped heads and panel tracery. Incorporated into the church's fabric are at least five pieces of 10th-century Anglo-Saxon interlace-decorated stone.

Inside, the church features a 13th-century tower arch with chamfered reveals and decorated imposts—one with dogtooth and the other with a fillet—and a single chamfered arch. Above this is a blocked pointed doorway that is off-centre. The south wall has a chamfered archway leading into the chapel, which contains a 13th-century lobed piscina. The chancel arch is also single chamfered with octagonal responds and developed waterleaf capitals. Most of the fittings and the roof date from 1853, except for a 17th-century communion table and a 13th-century tub font on a circular base with a moulded octagonal top.
