    St. Peters church (1845) was inspired by the Reverend Alexander Bennett who oversaw its construction and became the minister for 35 years. He died in 1880 just one month after a service of thanksgiving for the completion of the iconic bell tower which contains 8 Bells. The churchyard also contains the tomb of the Wollstonecraft / Shelley family housing the remains of Mary Shelley who authored the Frankenstein novel.
