Churches
St Peter, Charlton Saint Peter
| There are indications that there was a
church here in the 12th Century and the first record of a parish priest
is in 1306.
The nave and tower were added c.1523 and the church was rebuilt in the mid 1850s and re-opened in 1858. A newspaper report claims "the number of sittings is 121". People must have slimmer in those days! There used to be in excess of 60 dwellings. Now there are 34 and
a population of less than 100.
