Kirby Bellars: St Peter
St. Peter’s church is remarkably lavish for such a small village. Made of ironstone and beautifully decorated, it was transferred to the Augustinian Canons of the priory to the north in 1359. The impressive tower has an ashlar spire, with very low broaches, which can be seen throughout the northern sections of the saucer-shaped Wreake Valley. The nave at the core of the present building dates from the early 13th Century and was built in the early English Gothic style.
Unfortunately, the church has recently been the victim of copper theft from a large section of the roof, and efforts are underway to finance the necessary repairs.
