Description
The Parish Church of St Peter, built in 1874 by Thomas Henry Wyatt, is a Grade II listed church located on Church Street in Wimblington. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with ironstone bands and limestone dressings, topped with a plain tile roof and spire. The church features a cruciform plan without aisles and a crossing tower that has three stages, a clock, and a gabled pediment on the west face of the spire, which is covered in tile. The apse is polygonal, and there is a gabled south porch with a two-centred arch, shafted jambs, and stiff leaf foliage on the capitals. The nave has three two-light windows in two-centred arches with septfoils, and the tower includes a rose window with quatrefoils and a pair of trefoiled light belfry windows. Inside, double crossing arches spring from stiff-leaf corbels, with the north and south arches comprising two bays and paired piers, each featuring stiff-leaf capitals and common abaci. Wimblington became a separate parish from Doddington in 1868.
