SU 55 NE TADLEY CHURCH ROAD 9/16 1.6.5.66 Church of St Peter

I

Mainly C17 and C18 but of earlier origin, restored 1877. Aisless nave and chancel, west tower, south porch. Tile roofing, with a small dormer. The chancel has brick walling in Flemish bond with blue headers, plinth, fillets at eaves and verge, a C19, 3-light wooden 'Perpendicular' east window and a small Victorian north-side lancet. The nave is roughcast, with coupled round-arched windows, a plain arched doorway (now filled) on the north, and a larger arched doorway into the porch. The tower has a recent pyramid roof in tiling, red brick walling in English bond, diagonal stepped buttresses, rectangular windows, plinth, and a stone plaque incised 1685. The porch has a Tudor wooden doorframe and 2 old eaves beams within, but is now walled in brickwork (roughcast on the outside); there are 4 steps downward to the church floor level. Within, there is a C17 Communion rail, a panelled pulpit dated 1650 with a panelled tester, oak pews (C17), a C17 west gallery of heavy timbering with a front rail of balusters (cut short). The octagonal font is Victorian; there is a small brass wall plaque recording a gift by Thomas Sympson in 1674. The thick nave walls and restored lancet on the north side suggest a structure of medieval origin, although this was a chapelry of Overton until the C19.
