Church Of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a parish church that dates back to the 12th century, with significant rebuilding in the 14th century and the addition of a bell-tower in the 16th century. It underwent extensive restoration in 1860. The church is constructed of coursed rubble stone and features old tile roofs. The timber-framed bell tower, located in the west bay of the nave, is clad in weatherboard and topped with a narrow shingled broach spire.

The church consists of a nave, bell-tower, north porch, and chancel. The bell-tower has two-light traceried wooden openings on the north and south sides, with smaller lights on the other faces. The nave includes a single ogee light on the west, a 15th to 16th century window with two cusped lights on the north, and a two-light window in a blocked chamfered archway on the south, which originally provided access to the south transept. The south doorway, now blocked, features a 12th-century semi-circular arch with one side resting on a moulded impost. A small north doorway has a double chamfered two-centred arch with moulded imposts, similar to that of the porch.

The chancel has two bays of single lights, including a lancet on the north and others with cusped ogee arches, along with a two-light traceried window on the east. Inside, the bell-tower showcases heavy timber framing with curved and cross braces, and a moulded arch with a carved boss leading to the nave. The 19th-century wooden chancel arch and roofs are present, and the chancel features a cusped ogee piscina and a window-seat sedile. The northwest window of the chancel has clunch reveals, with the lower parts displaying carved panels depicting St. Christopher and the Trinity. A rood screen from the 15th to 16th century features cusped wooden tracery on low stone walls. There is also a late 19th-century panelled pulpit and an octagonal stone font, possibly from the 14th century, topped with a 17th to 18th-century wooden cover adorned with ogee arches and a finial.
