St Peter's lies north of the village. The church was constructed by Paley and Austin, Lancaster architects. Inside is stained glass by Kempe. The present church, dated 1894, was built to replace a 1745 one.

Its interior has been used by many feature films. Exterior has faded over the years to a dull grey from a more brilliant colour.
