The first picture shows St. Peter's as viewed from Shaldon Bridge.

The building uses a variety of local and not-so-local stones to achieve some remarkable visual effects. On the sea wall side is the Choir Vestry and the north porch entrance, now converted into a disabled access toilet.

This photograph of the north wall of the Chancel shows the use of still more stone types to achieve more dramatic effects. The metal gates form part of the rood screen, through which the people pass to receive Holy Communion.
