Sedilia and piscina, St Peter's church
St Peter's church at Saltby is a grade II* listed parish church with a C13 west tower, early C14 nave and chancel which were reworked in the C15 and the chancel was further remodelled during the 1885 restoration.

The church is built of Ironstone with limestone dressings and the parapets hide roofs that are lead. The tower is built in 3 stages with a late C14 belfry stage and a Perpendicular gabled south porch with double chamfered entrance arch. There is a blocked north nave door and a blocked north door in the chancel to the east of an organ chamber with no organ.

The font is a plain C13 drum font on a hexagonal stem and the bench sedilia and piscina are dated around 1885.
