Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church primarily dating from the 15th century, with earlier and later features. It is constructed from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and includes a chancel, north vestry, nave, south porch, north aisle, and west tower. The chancel likely originated in the 12th century but was rebuilt in the 13th century. A 14th-century north chapel has been destroyed, leaving only one blocked bay of the arcade. The east end of the chancel was rebuilt in 1848, along with the north vestry. The chancel arch is from the 13th century. The nave features a three-bay north arcade from around 1190, with some dogtooth decoration on the central arch. The north clerestory is from the 15th century, while the south windows were heightened in the 15th century; the central window retains a 14th-century square-headed window with trefoiled lights in the lower half, and the outer pair have transoms at half height. There is a blocked rood stair in the southeast corner. The south doorway is from the 13th century and is located under the 15th-century porch. The north aisle, originally from around 1190, was widened in the 15th century and has two 1848 windows in the north wall. The south and east elevations feature embattled parapets, while the north has plain parapets. The 15th-century four-stage west tower has a simple west doorway, diagonal buttresses, and a broach spire with two tiers of lucarnes.

Inside, there is a 13th-century effigy in a recessed arch on the east wall of the north aisle, and a mural monument from 1685 in the vestry. The church also features a 13th-century octagonal font with a foliate capital on one outer shaft, and a Perpendicular rood screen that retains traces of colour and gilding, along with an inscription referring to the Transfiguration. There are some 16th and 17th-century pews, and two 15th-century tie beams with carved heads in the chancel roof.
