Description
St. Peter Hungate Museum is a former parish church dating back to 1460, as indicated by an inscription on the north buttress. The building is constructed of flint with stone and brick dressings, with parts of the chancel made of brick. It features lead roofs and pintiles on the chancel. The structure includes a west tower, nave, chancel, north and south transepts, and a south porch. The unbuttressed two-stage tower has a three-light Perpendicular west window with a two-centre arch and rectangular sound holes, topped with a pyramidal roof. The nave has three bays, while the two-storey porch and single bay transepts are supported by diagonal buttresses. Throughout the nave and transepts, there are four-light Perpendicular windows with four-centre arches. The chancel, which was rebuilt in 1602, retains the north and south windows and features a hammerbeam roof. At the crossing, the trusses are set diagonally to intersect.
