Well before the Norman Conquest, there was a Saxon church on this site. The church was rebuilt in the mid fourteenth century and the tower and chancel date from this time. Today it is Grade I listed.
The font is fifteenth century and was moved in 1999 when the western end of the church was remodelled.
The 1911 Walker organ was restored and enlarged in 1998 but records show that there was an organ in the church as far back as the early 1500s.
The original five bells were cast in 1648. In 1934 three new bells were added and the Tenor was recast.
The area around St Peter and St Paul's Church has been designated a conservation area as it has many early preserved buildings from the 16th to 18th centuries. In the main street, there is a cross and village cage (old gaol) built in 1773 and last used in 1882.
