Description

The Church of St Peter is a parish church that dates from the 13th century, with additions from the 15th century and around 1700, and it was restored in 1928. It is constructed of coursed rubble, with some areas rendered, and features a slate roof with coped gables at the east and west ends. A bellcote with two arches sits under a triangular ashlar head on the west ridge, and there is a damaged cross on the east ridge. A single external red brick stack is located on the north side.

The church comprises a nave and chancel. The west wall includes an arched and recessed panel that contains a 20th-century arched 2-light Y traceried window, flanked by single buttresses. The north wall, which is also buttressed, has a blocked doorway that is partially obscured by the stack. To the left of this doorway is a window under a flat arch, a 13th-century lancet window, and further left, a 13th-century cusped lancet. All windows feature chamfered surrounds.

At the east end, which sits on a deep plinth with rendered sections above, there is a 15th-century arched 3-light window with panel tracery, cusping, a hood mould, and head label stops. The south chancel has an arched window with two arched and cusped lights and a single quatrefoil, complete with a hood mould and remnants of label stops. The south nave shows evidence of a removed three-bay aisle arcade and has two 2-light windows from around 1700, which are under flat arches and have single stone mullions. To the left, there is a rendered and gabled porch from 1928, which is set on a plinth and features a single ridge cross, kneeler finials, and an arched doorway, with an inner chamfered arched doorway.

Inside, the north nave has a blocked arched doorway, and above the two south nave windows are remnants of double chamfered arcade arches. The chancel contains a cusped piscina and a 12th-century tub font. The church's furniture is from the 20th century. On the north chancel wall, there is a monument to George Brown from 1784 and a painted prayer board. Several 18th-century floor slabs can be found within the church, and there is a 16th-century oak chest in the nave.
