St Peter, Alton
Church History
(from http://www.altonstaffs.co.uk)
The Church of St. Peter was built around 1178 by Bertrum de Verdun within the castle walls and it has been partly rebuilt due to damage caused during various attacks on the castle through the early years. It is in the style of a true Norman Church with the Tower and North Aisle being truly original parts.There are mediaeval wall paintings on the North Side of the of the Nave.
