Standing on high ground above the Waveney Valley just west of the main village. There has been a Church on the site of St Peter and St Paul since before Doomsday. The main structure of the Church is mediaeval, dating from 14th century, although there are traces of the earlier building - late Saxon and early Norman. It is a Grade 1 listed. The exterior is a typical flint faced East Anglian building with a square tower housing a ring of six bells.  The interior was restored in the 1840s and is regarded, then and now, as a fine example of a gothic Victorian interior. The Church has been well maintained and cared for and work is beginning to constuct a room in the base of the tower to form a secluded vestry and a small kitchen unit,     .
 
We have a service each Sunday, with a sevice of Holy Communion once a month,  the exception being the fifth Sunday in the month which is a 'rotating' benefice service.

We now are in an interegnum and our services are taken by local readers and visiting clergy.
