Church of St Peter is a Grade I listed church in Milton Bryan, Bedfordshire, England. It became a listed building on 23 January 1961.^[1]

History[]

St Peter's has Norman origins, its history can be traced back to the 11th century. Its construction was originally of a more simplistic nature, consisting of only a nave, chancel, bell-cot and a wooden porch. After changes in the 14th and 17th Centuries, the building also exhibits both north and south transepts, a tower and a stained-glass window dedicated to Joseph Paxton. The Church also features the 'Inglis Chapel', deriving its namesake from the Inglis family; Hugh Inglis (a former Baron of Milton Bryan) made significant repairs and additions to the building during the 1800s and selected Robert Smirke as the architect.^[2][3]

Activity[]

The Church maintains regular services, including Holy Communion, alongside community events such as jumble sales and 'Café Church' where refreshments are provided for an optional donation.^[4]
