Description
The Church of Saint Peter is a parish church located in Bickenhill. The building dates back to the 12th century, featuring a north aisle and arcade, with the chancel added around 1300. The north aisle was widened in the early 14th century. A late 15th-century north chapel and an embattled west tower are also part of the structure. A modern south porch has been added, and the spire with a side turret is dated 1630. The church underwent significant restoration in 1887. Inside, there are late 17th-century altar railings and a 15th-century octagonal font.
