'The last Norman church built in Derbyshire, in 1923'.

The church at the heart of the town: every year, thousands of people visit our beautiful church.

The churchyard has a distinct curve to it perhaps following the shape of an underlying moat and ancient meeting place. An ancient Yew tree reckoned to be between 1,000 and 2,000 years old also stands in the churchyard.

Here is a large town church that speaks of the 15th century. In 1483 Edward V, the husband of Elizabeth Woodville of nearby Grafton Regis, gave a large grant of stone from the royal quarries nearby in Whittlebury.

Historical documents refer to St Peter's as a Royal Chapel as early as the 12th century, today it is a Chapel Royal and Royal Peculiar; directly under the jurisdiction of The Queen.

A delightful church, something of a surprise nestled on a side street in a quiet suburb of a south Wales valleys town, it was built in 1854 in the Gothic style and tells the story of this area, the coal boom on the 19th century which brought workers from all over Wales and a community spirit that is as strong as ever.
