Parish Church Of St Peter

The Parish Church of St Peter is an Anglican church with origins dating back to the 13th century. The tower was built in the 15th century, the porch in the 17th century, and the chancel was rebuilt with an aisle added between 1860 and 1865, designed by W Slater. The building is constructed of rubble stone with tiled roofs and coped gables, with separate gabled roofs over the nave and aisle.

The tower is three-stage, featuring a battlemented parapet and corner pinnacles. A moulded string course with carved gargoyles runs below the parapet. The belfry contains two-light Perpendicular windows with pierced stone panels, and the west face has a clock with a plaque dated 1878. The main west window is of three lights, with Perpendicular tracery, and a moulded pointed arch surrounds the west door. Diagonal buttresses and a moulded plinth are also present. A 13th-century lancet window is set into the south wall of the nave, west of the porch. The porch has a round-arched doorway, and to the east of the porch are two 15th-century Perpendicular-style three-light windows with hoodmoulds. The south wall of the chancel, dating to the 19th century, has two similar two-light windows with hoodmoulds, accompanied by diagonal buttresses. The east window is of three lights, in Perpendicular style with a hoodmould. The north wall of the chancel has two matching windows. A reset 15th-century three-light Perpendicular-style window is set within the east wall of the north aisle, which also features four 19th-century three-light Perpendicular-style windows along its north wall.

Internally, the walls of the nave and chancel have been stripped, while the aisle walls are plastered. A late 15th-century barrel roof with moulded ribs, carved bosses, and an enriched moulded wall plate covers the nave. The chancel and aisle have similar 19th-century roofs, all internally boarded. The nave has a stone flag floor, while the chancel is tiled. The north arcade features moulded arches, piers with attached shafts, and carved caps. The chancel arch is from the 19th century, with single shafts and moulded caps. Carved stone corbels above the chancel arch support the nave roof ribs. The tower arch also has single shafts with carved caps, and supporting corbels with carved heads are found on each side. A 19th-century octagonal font has quatrefoil panels, and there is a 19th-century oak pulpit. A piscina is set within the south nave wall.
