"St Peter is a fairly large, neat building, a testimony to the severe 15th century Perpendicular which first created it, and its almost complete refurbishment in late Victorian times, one of the last in Suffolk of the century. In fact, the most obvious parts of this restoration, the nave roof and gallery, were installed as late as 1901, to celebrate the glorious Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria three years earlier. Her death shortly before their dedication must have put a bit of a dampener on things."
