St Peter's Church, Prestbury, Gothic parish church in Prestbury, England
The stone structure features a central nave with aisles, a chancel, and a tower constructed around 1480 in the English Gothic style.
Starting construction in 1220, St Peter's Church replaced an earlier Norman chapel that still stands in the churchyard dating from 1175.
The interior displays a chandelier from 1814 and decorative paintings of apostles and tribes of Israel completed in 1719.
Visitors enter through the South Porch daily to explore the church grounds, which include medieval architecture and historical monuments.
The churchyard contains yew trees dating back to the Hundred Years' War and a sundial from 1672 missing its original gnomon.
