* G F Pennington, architect for Castleford Urban District Council, designed several churches in East and West Yorkshire.

The nave and chancel of St Peter and St Paul were largely rebuilt by James Fowler in 1840.

Inside, though, the 13th century tower arch survives from the medieval church.

The doorway has five orders, and a crocketed ogee hood flanked by pinnacles. It probably dates from James Fowler's restoration of 1840.
