St Peter and St Paul's Church, Clare, Grade I listed church in Clare, England
The church stands at the center of Clare with a perpendicular west tower and large nave featuring architectural elements from multiple periods.
Construction of the church began in 1250, and it underwent substantial modifications during the 14th and 15th centuries, including renovations to the nave in 1440.
The church maintains an eight-bell ring system, with Suffolk's heaviest tenor bell, continuing the English tradition of change ringing.
Visitors can access the church daily, with parking available at Clare Country Park, a five-minute walk from the building.
A 1729 beer jug, known as a gotch, remains in the church's possession, presented to bell ringers and decorated with intricate inscriptions.
