St Peter

The earliest fabric of the church dates back to the 12th century. It consists of a chancel, nave, north and south aisles, tower with spire and north & south porches. An interesting feature is the south doorway where the chamfers of the imposts are finely carved include symbolic beasts on the two reveals. The base of the tower and some portions of the nave wall are Norman; the aisles were added in the 13th century. The tower and the small broached spire also date from the 13th century.

Buttresses to the tower were added in the 14th century. The clerestory was added in the 15th century and the roofs of both the nave and aisles raised. In 1794 cracks were reported in the tower walls, and underpinning was necessary. Various repairs were carried out in 1829 and 1836. The north porch was rebuilt in 1904-06 and new three- light windows installed in the chancel.

In 1951, an exciting discovery was made in the church, a coffin lid was unearthed! The carvings on the coffin lid indicate that a Cross Bearer of the Knight Templars Order was buried in this place. The coffin lid was found lying parallel to the south aisle wall with the foot facing east and is now housed in the nave.
The plain octagonal font is 13th century and stands on circular supports. 

There are three bells in the tower all hung from timber headstocks within a composite timber and cast iron bell frame.
