St Peter's Church

The church was designed by G.E. Street and is wider and shorter than would be the norm, in order to accommodate the steep slope of the hillside. The builder, James Griffiths was paid the sum of £1,251 and the foundation stone was laid on St Peter's day, 1863 and the church was consecrated on St Peter's day, 1866. The windows in the chancel are a memorial to the first vicar, the Revd. Frederick Peel who served the church without a stipend for ten years.
