Saint Peter's Catholic Church

Freestanding T-plan Catholic church, built 1793, with three-bay elevations to aisles and with single-bay transepts and chancel. Pitched slate roof with cast-iron rainwater goods and with bellcote over main entrance. Dressed limestone front elevation with stepped diagonal buttresses and with statue niches flanking shallow flat-roof dressed stone porch. Lined-and-ruled render to other walls with alternating smooth and rusticated quoins. Rendered concrete external stairs at northwest, southeast and southwest accessing galleries, north-western supported on columns and pilasters. Pointed-arch window openings with stained-glass windows, stone sills and hood-mouldings with console terminals. Large traceried north window in nave, and with triple lancets and four-centred-arch windows to transepts. Timber battened matchboard doors. Interior galleries to rear and to transepts and flat coffered ceiling. Decorative render backdrop to chancel.

Saint Peter's Roman Catholic Church is a fine example of a late eighteenth-century church. It contains original fabric including the fine ashlar stonework to the front elevation, and the window tracery, and it makes a fine architectural and aesthetic contribution to the village due to its form, detail, and position adjoining the former church hall, and opposite the graveyard.
