St Peirio's Church

St Peirio's Church features thick stone walls, small windows, and rounded arches characteristic of Norman building techniques from the medieval period.

The church foundation dates back to January 17, 1401, during a time when religious buildings served as central gathering points for medieval communities.

The building maintains its original function as a religious center, with regular services continuing the traditions established over six centuries ago.

Visitors can explore the church grounds throughout the year, with numerous interpretive signs explaining the architectural elements and historical significance.

Located at an elevation of 29 meters, the church structure incorporates specific design elements that allow natural light to filter through its clerestory windows.
