Church of St Peter

The Church of St Peter is a church dating from the late 12th century to the 14th century, with substantial restoration work carried out between 1833 and 1843. Constructed of regular coursed limestone and ironstone with ashlar dressings, it features a lead roof. The church comprises an aisled nave, a chancel, a west tower, and north and south porches.

The south elevation of the chancel has a 13th-century four-light window with a transom and Y-tracery, alongside a similar two-light east window. The north chancel elevation contains a single lancet window. The south aisle has a two-window range of 14th-century three-light square head windows, with the window on the left featuring 19th-century tracery; a small door with a cusped head sits between these windows. A three-light east window has a four-centred head, while the two-light west window possesses a square head. A lean-to roof is topped with ashlar parapets and a 19th-century octagonal chimney. A 19th-century porch in the 14th-century style, with a gable, finial, and pinnacles, is located to the left. The north aisle mirrors the south, also with a two-window range of 14th-century square head windows. It has a lean-to roof with a moulded stone cornice and ashlar gable parapets, accompanied by a matching 19th-century porch to the right.

The west tower, dating from the 14th century and divided into three stages, has clasping buttresses to the west corners. A two-light window is set in the lower stage, while the upper stage features two-light bell-chamber openings with a quatrefoil frieze above. A castellated ashlar parapet is punctuated with gargoyles and pinnacle bases at the corners.

Internally, the three-bay nave arcades display variations in style; the two western bays have late 12th-century semi-circular arches, with stepped arches to the north arcades, circular piers, and square abaci. One bay to the east has 13th-century double-chamfered arches with octagonal piers and responds. Similar double-chamfered arches define the chancel and tower openings. Single chamfered arches connect the chancel to the aisles. Some original roof timbers remain in the south aisle, while other roofs are 19th-century replacements. A late 12th-century piscina is found in the north-east corner of the north aisle. A 14th-century recess in the north aisle is defined by an ogee head flanked by pinnacles and a quatrefoil frieze. A Perpendicular screen base and carvings are situated behind the choir stalls. A Jacobean pulpit incorporates a small ogee tester and primitive figure carving on its panels. The Jacobean communion rail showcases turned balusters. The tower screen integrates carved panels. Several early 19th-century slate memorial panels are present. An octagonal font is also located within the church. Stained glass, including a late 19th-century east window likely by Kempe, is complemented by mid and late 20th-century windows in the north and south aisles.
