Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church built in 1846 by T. Johnson, with an addition made in 1898. It is constructed from rockface limestone ashlar and features slate roofs. The church is designed in the Early English style and includes a nave, chancel, north porch, vestry, and a turret on the southeast end of the nave.

The west end has a plinth, a sill band, two buttresses, and a single two-light window with a quatrefoil under a two-centred arch that has a hood mould. The gabled north porch features a two-centred arched doorway and lancet side lights. On the north side of the nave, there are four lancets, with the easternmost pair closely spaced and linked by a hood mould. The added vestry is adorned with decorative ridge tiles and a moulded gable stack.

The west door has a square head with a chamfered reveal, and the five-light north window features a chamfered mullion and a continuous cornice, reflecting a 17th-century style. Above the cornice is an off-centre panel with a cusped head, inscribed with the date 1898 in Roman numerals. The east chancel wall has triple stepped lancets with a common hood mould and sill course, while the south chancel wall has a two-light lancet window under a hood mould.

The square southeast tower has two stages with a broached top, surmounted by an ashlar octagonal belfry and a short ashlar steeple. The east wall of the tower features a planked door in a plain surround, and the base is lit by lancets with a single slot on each side of the top stage. The belfry contains eight lancets, one on each face, with gablettes above. The south nave wall has six lancets, with the end pairs closely set.

Inside, the church has pews, a screen, a brass lectern, and a font, all dating from the 19th century, along with stained glass in the east window by W. Wailes, dated 1846.
