The interior of St Peter and St Paul's church is much the same, although sadly, in my opinion, the 'God Is Love' script has been painted out. Notice, also, the beautifully carved pulpit.

In the roof is one tie- beam on arched braces with traceried spandrels, probably also supporting the lenten veil. Side walls have lancets.
