The main east window is by Hardman, made in 1856. The majority of the windows show scenes from St Peter's life. He was a Galilean fisherman whom Jesus chose to become the first leader of the Christian Church. The windows date between 1887-1903.

The church itself dates to 1454 and contains some fin history and monuments.

The windows are detailed in the gallery and are taken from an anti-clockwise route around the church.
