Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter, built in 1845 by Thomas Henry Wyatt, was constructed following the demolition of a medieval church in 1844. It features an aisleless nave with seven bays and a chancel with two bays, along with a western tower attached to the south side of the last bay of the nave, which serves as a porch. There is also a small vestry on the south side of the west bay of the chancel. The church is designed in the Early English style, characterized by steep tile roofing and fine squared flintwork walls with stone dressings around the windows, stepped buttresses (diagonal at the corners), cill bands, and a plinth.

The nave windows consist of coupled lights with simple tracery, while the larger east (three-light) and west (four-light) windows exhibit a Perpendicular style. The chancel windows are small lancets. The tower has two tall stages and supports a medium-height lead broach spire, featuring coupled openings to the belfry. The lower section of the tower, which is still tall, includes corner buttresses and a short staircase turret. Additionally, there is a small projection at the west end of the nave, connected to the tower, with a small window that was formerly used as a recess for the font.

Inside, the nave is spacious, featuring an open timber roof with tie-beams and decorated brackets, from which rise architraves and a vertical element at the center. The high pulpit is accessed through a small door from the vestry. The Communion rails are 17th-century Flemish, adorned with pierced panels in high relief depicting putti among floral designs. A small 16th-century brass is located on the north wall of the chancel. Other fittings are consistent with the period, contributing to the overall stylish Gothic Revival character of the building.
