Church of St Peter and St Mary, Medieval church in Stowmarket, England

The Church of St Peter and St Mary features local flint walls with ashlar stone dressings and includes a four-story tower with a crenellated parapet.

Tree-ring dating indicates that the timbers used in the church spire originate from 1362-1363, aligning with the main structure's construction period.

The church maintains memorials dedicated to Stowmarket residents who lost their lives during the First and Second World Wars.

The church opens its doors from Tuesday to Saturday between 9:00 AM and 3:15 PM, with Sunday services held at 10:00 AM.

Thomas Young, who served as John Milton's tutor in the 17th century, held the position of vicar at this church and remains buried within its grounds.
