Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church located in West Liss. It has origins dating back to the 13th century, with elements from the 14th, 15th, and 17th centuries, and was restored in 1864. The church features a restored 13th-century chancel with a small north vestry, a 13th-century nave consisting of three bays with a south aisle, a south porch built in 1639, and a 13th-century west tower. The walls are made of ironstone with stone dressings, including quoins and stepped buttresses on the nave. The nave has lancet windows, two Perpendicular windows, a 17th-century mullion and transom window at the west end of the aisle, and triple lancets to the east of the chancel (from the 19th century) and the aisle (from the 16th century). The porch is constructed of brick in Flemish bond and has a tiled roof. The tower features a bell stage and a shingled broach spire.

Inside, the church has octagonal columns with moulded caps, classical wall monuments dating from 1732 to 1839, and a Victorian Perpendicular font. The gable of the porch has painted lettering that commemorates its gift by Henry James in 1639.
