West Row, Suffolk

St Peter, locked, keyholder listed, is, and I don't often say this, an attractive Victorian build of 1850 [chapel] and 1875 [chancel]. I think aesthetically speaking it would be better if the chancel hadn't been added but even so it's very good of its kind. I didn't bother seeking the keyholder out as I was sure the interior would disappoint but perhaps the pulpit would have been worth seeing.

ST PETER, West Row. Built in 1850, convened into a church and chancel added 187 5. - PULPIT. From St Mary, probably mid C17.

St Peter (3)

Two miles away is the big agricultural village of West Row, with a church built from the materials of the old National School; it has a window in memory of Lawrence Clutterbuck, a curate’s son who gave his life to save a student from drowning.
