Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is an Anglican church built between 1848 and 1850 by architect G E Street. It is constructed from local rubble with Pentewan stone dressings and features steep rag slate roofs, along with a bellcote over the west gable. The architectural style is Middle Pointed, and the layout includes a nave, a lower chancel, a baptistry at the west end, a south porch, and a small north vestry transept.

The exterior showcases buttresses that divide the nave and chancel into three and two bays, respectively. It has two-light cusped and traceried windows, except for a three-light east window and square-headed single-light and two-light windows on the flat-roofed baptistry with canted corners. The porch features a quatrefoil above a moulded two-centred arched doorway, which has 20th-century planked doors. There is also a pointed doorway leading to the vestry. An old chamfered granite wheelhead cross on a moulded base is located under the east window.

The interior has not been inspected but is described by Pevsner as having a great barn-like roof and memorial windows dedicated to Gill. This church is an early work by Street and reflects the simplicity of design typical of the early Ecclesiological movement.
