The church is dedicated to St. Peter, and is an ancient edifice with square embattled tower and south porch. The organ was built by subscription in 1852. The old register was destroyed by fire, so that the earliest date is about 1715. The Wesleyans have a chapel in the village, and a National school was erected in 1843.
