Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church dated 1624, with restorations carried out in 1884 by H.J. Green, the Diocesan architect, and again in 1947. It is constructed of brick and features a thatched roof. The building has a rectangular plan that includes an undifferentiated nave and chancel. The church has three-light intersecting windows on the west and east sides, and two 2-light Y windows on the north and south, all of which are adorned with hood moulds on labels. The brick plinth is complemented by stepped gables on the west and east, which feature trefoil coping on kneelers. A bell-cote on the west side has a rebated centre and a stepped gable. The south porch is gabled, with a stepped gable supported on kneelers. The inner and outer arches of the porch are double chamfered and semi-circular, with the outer arch featuring a hood on labels beneath the datestone from 1624. There is one stepped side buttress to the nave and diagonal stepped buttresses on the eastern side, all exhibiting tumbling. The south side has a corbelled eaves cornice, while the north side has a saw-toothed eaves cornice. A blocked double chamfered door is located on the north side.

Inside, the church features tie beams in the now boarded roof, which have small sunk quadrant mouldings. The polygonal pulpit is panelled and has a palmette frieze below the top rail. There is a 19th-century linefold altar dado and a circular 19th-century drum font that is plain except for four patee crosses in punched roundels. An asymmetrical wall monument in the form of a cartouche commemorates Mary Aufrere from 1750, featuring drapery folds with a cherub at the apex holding a coat of arms, and an additional cherubic head to the left.
