St. Peter's Church welcomes you! Known as 'The Church in the Fields' the church has one of the oldest Norman round towers in Norfolk and the rest of the building is a rare example of a complete Victorian rebuild with especially fine woodwork and stained glass. We are a 'Festival church' which means we provide a minimum of 6 religious services a year; as well as trying to make these services rather special we are developing a range of other uses for the building; a community hub, heritage centre, focus for wellbeing and an exemplar of nature recovery, based on our award winning conservation churchyard.

We have been fortunate to have raised over £500,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and other grants to carry out an extensive programme of repairs and improvements, including disabled access, an automatic door locking and opening device, all access toilet, kitchen/servery, sound system, new welcome area and heritage interactive screen, heating and improved lighting, CCTV and live streaming camera system, a water supply and equipped vestry utility area ('Building the Future: Repairing the Past'). The works were completed in December 2024 and during 2025, we used additional grant funding secured to combat social isolation for a pilot programme of events and activities.  See our website 'Haveringland Chronicles' for further information:  https://www.haveringlandchronicles.wordpress.com.  We also have a YouTube channel with videos of talks and events: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCitXD2NFXwhmDFVZ1X3VwtQ

We also organised a conference in May 2026 to explore the challenges facing rural churches called 'Community Changemakers- re imagining rural churches'- videos of presentations are available on the YouTube channel and there is a website https://www.communitychangemakers.org.uk
