The church of SS Peter and Paul >
Link was built on the site of on an older, Norman church. However, after several restorations nothing remains from Norman times and only the nave, north aisle and porch are medieval. The church once formed part of the priory church of a Cluniac monastery and at the same time served as the parish church. After its suppression all monastery buildings and parts of the church were demolished. The removal of the last monastic remains was completed in 1862 and the well-known architect Edward Lushington Blackburne was commissioned to restore the church. The old box pews were replaced by new benches, and a new tower was built not at the west end, as is usual, but at the east end of the north aisle. In fact, the church is believed to never have had a west tower. A new chancel and vestry were completed in 1875. The church retains the original C15 baptismal font >
