•The church of St. Peter consists of a chancel, nave, west tower and late-19th century south porch. The walls are of rubble, partly coursed and mixed with large stones, and with stone dressings. The roofs are covered with tiles and lead.
•The church is not mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086. Several 12th century stones preserved in the church seem to indicate a stone church of this period, but the earliest work, in-situ, is the chancel which was built about 1275. The nave was rebuilt towards the end of the 15th century, and the tower was added early in the next century.
•The church was restored in 1884-5 when it was said that the chancel was taken down and rebuilt because its orientation differed from that of the nave. The south porch was rebuilt in 1890, and the tower and west wall of the nave were under-pinned in 1931.
A small camo tube can be done as a cache and dash.
“If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
There is also a Church Micro Stats page found via the Bookmark list”
