Ruin Of Church Of St Peter

The ruin of the Church of St. Peter is a medieval structure that was converted into a dovecote in the 18th century, as indicated by a limestone plaque on the south side inscribed "T.R. 1754." The building measures about 6 meters square in plan. The original construction features flint and limestone rubble with freestone dressings, of which only the eastern parts of the nave side walls remain. The 18th-century work is primarily made of gault brick and includes dentil eaves. The west face displays primary-braced 18th-century studding with brick-nogging, while diagonal 18th-century buttresses of gault brick at the eastern corners replace most of the earlier ashlar quoins. The roof is hipped and covered with plain tiles, featuring gablets. On the north side, there is a nearly complete 15th-century hood-moulded window with remnants of a transom and tracery; to the right, there is part of a blocked 13th-century lancet, with another having existed to the left. Inside, the inner arch of a former window in the south wall, possibly from the 15th century, is visible, along with various boarded-up 18th-century openings.
