St Peter's Church, Medieval parish church in Carmarthen, Wales.
The stone church features a western tower housing eight bells, a long nave measuring 170 feet, and carved figures dating from the twelfth century.
Between 1107 and 1124, King Henry I transferred the church to Battle Abbey before it became part of the Priory of St John in Carmarthen.
The church hosted significant trials, including the 1555 trial of Bishop Robert Ferrar before his execution in Carmarthen's market square.
Located at the junction of Priory Street and Church Street, the building maintains daily open doors for community gatherings and religious services.
Sir Richard Steele, an 18th-century satirist who died in Carmarthen in 1729, rests in the church's burial grounds.
