Find a church

St Peter's is legitimately another claimant for the title 'best Northamptonshire steeple'.

A medieval church with features dating from early 12th century, wall paintings from c1400 and many items of social historical interest.

Opened in 1930 by Archbishop Downey of Liverpool, who described the building as ‘a miracle of beauty’.

A medieval wonder in a pretty village.

Externally it is the late 15th century tower that grabs one's attention.

Although there has been a church here since the 12th century, the present building dates from the mid 14th century and incorporates a number of architectural styles.

The spire, topped by a weathercock, is a local landmark as it can be seen for miles, at 150 feet tall.

There are always fascinating pieces of historical evidence and secrets to be uncovered when visiting a church as old as our Norman church at East Anstey.
