Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church, now redundant, dating to the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries. It is constructed of flint with stone dressings, and has slate roofs. The church comprises a west tower, a four-bay nave and south aisle, and a two-bay chancel.

The Decorated west tower features a two-light window with switch tracery in a 'Y' shape. It also has four Decorated belfry windows, each with two lights and trefoil detailing, with an outer label continuing as a string course at the arch springing. Two angle buttresses are present on the west face, and one buttress is on each of the north and south sides, featuring three set-offs. The tower has a flat roof without a parapet.

The south aisle boasts a series of 13th-century tracery windows of varying designs: a lancet window slightly off-centre to the west, a 'Y' tracery window, a two-light window with Plate tracery and a roundel above, a paired lancet, and a three-light Perpendicular east window. The south door, also dating to the 13th century, has colonnettes with bases and capitals on its north and south sides, supporting a richly moulded arch, and is protected by a late 18th-century battened door with a switch tracery head. A clerestory dating to the 15th century features four two-light straight-headed windows. The north side of the nave has three Perpendicular four-centred arch traceried windows. The chancel has one north and one south three-light Perpendicular straight-headed window, another south three-light arched head Perpendicular window, and a blocked south priest’s door. Two clasping east gable buttresses support a 19th-century three-light tracery Perpendicular east window.

Inside, the tower arch has three continuous chamfers. A screen and door in a Gothick style were added in the late 18th century. The south arcade consists of four and a half bays. The west half bay's springing shares details of deeply moulded double hollow chamfered Early English arches with the four bays to the east, supported on octagonal piers with bases and capitals, which are stylistically of the 14th and 15th centuries, possibly recasings of original piers. Two south aisle windows at the centre and east have deep embrasures and angle colonnettes with bases and capitals. The nave has a 15th-century arched braced roof with moulded braces and principals, with bosses at the intersections and to the ridge beam. A Perpendicular tower arch is present, together with arches leading to the former south side rood stairs and rood loft. The chancel has a 19th-century roof. A 14th-century piscina has an ogee arch framing a trefoil. The south aisle contains 17th-century poppyhead benches. Fine 15th-century glass is found in the tracery lights of the nave, including a Pieta and Royal Arms of George IV within a Gothick architrave frame, with matching details on the Commandment Boards and Lord's Prayer board, now located in the tower-vestry.
