A church on this site is referred to in 10th century documents
and its millennium was celebrated in 1991. Some of the Saxon masonry
was used in the Norman flint walls dating from the 11th/12th centuries
in the Romanesque style with the massive original door. It was dedicated
to St Peter in 1291 and the 40 incumbents since are recorded.
There is a wall tablet to Mary Nicholas who in 1651, with her sister,
helped Charles II to escape after the Battle of Worcester.
The church was restored in the late Victorian period and the reredos
introduced.
The names of 41 residents who served in the Great War are recorded
and the War Memorial commemorates 6 who fell.
