After seeing the wonderful report by roomthreeonefive on this beautiful church I decided to visit this one and the other one up the road.thanks for the heads up on these two.st Peter's was the parish church of hockwold,till the village joined up with the neighbouring village of Wilton.to form hockwold cum Wilton.the church became redundant and in 1959 was given a grade 1 listing.the church is mainly constructed of Flint.with a slate roof..I actually fell in love with this beautiful place..and stopped taking photos for a little while to sit down and just take in the lovely architecture in here
Coming through the gates is a slightly overgrown graveyard..and the church is in fairly good condition with no vandalism.
A quick look through the door and you get a nice white light inside
Inside the beautiful white walls with the spectacular arches are quite breathtaking
The strange sight of seeing all the butterflies around the bowl.
The beautiful stained glass window.
Looking to the rear of the church
Heading up the belfry is this pile of metal in the middle room.
Finally at the top is the fantastic three bells and oak beams.
