Description
The Church of St Peter is a parish church built in 1849, designed by Benjamin Ferrey in the Decorated style. It features a nave, a north aisle, and a chancel, constructed from flint with freestone dressings and topped with a high-pitched old tile roof. The chancel and south chapel were added in 1866.
The church's materials include flint and Bath stone freestone, accented with red brick bands. The layout consists of a nave, a north aisle, a chancel, a south chapel, and a south porch.
On the exterior, there is a projecting weathered plinth, chamfered stone eaves, and diagonal buttresses with crocketed pinnacles. A small gabled bell-cote is located over the west end of the nave, and the windows feature curvilinear tracery.
Inside, the plain nave has four bays supported by alternating round and octagonal aisle piers. The chancel is elaborately designed in the Early English style, highlighted by a nine-arched reredos adorned with painted panels of saints and angels. Notable stained glass includes a west window from 1862 with panels by Morris, Brown and Webb, a single light chapel window from around 1861 by Morris, a two-light window from 1878 in the south aisle by Kempe, two south nave windows by Hardman, and the west window in the chapel by O'Connor.
