Church of St Peter

church building United Kingdom
Grade II Listed St Peter's Church, Newchurch, Monmouthshire. In the Church in Wales Diocese of Monmouth. A leaflet available at the church entrance states that the church is located at 800 ft (244m) above sea level in a churchyard with views of the Bristol Channel and beyond to the Cotswold scarp. The land was granted to Tintern Abbey after the Norman Invasion. Monks cleared the area to establish the Parish of Newchurch. In 1291 the land was given to Roger Bigod in exchange for land at Woolaston. Bigod provided the Church of St Peter. The church rebuild and restoration of 1864 left intact the squat 14th century west tower with battlements.
