St. Peter’s, the Mother Church of The Langtons, is of amazing proportions and has so much heritage of interest dating back 800 years.
Victorian renovations resulted in the elaborate carvings on the pews and
pulpit and a reredos in the chancel which is an alabaster representation of the Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci.
Tickets: Adults £5, children FREE. No booking required. Cream Teas available.

We once again ‘dressed’ the plain Wooden Cross with colourful flowers to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord. The Cross being placed outside the church afterwards for all to see.
