Church of St Mary, Burgh St Peter
By the 18th century the original tower was in ruins so a local family, the Boycotts, had their own stepped tower built onto the base in order that the church also became their family mausoleum. It is the Boycott family who gave the word boycott to the English language after a member of the family became shunned by everyone following an attempt to enforce rent rises in Ireland.
