St Peter's Church, Ipswich

C14 aisles; Henry VIII arms outside on buttress on East wall (not in photo).

In the time of Cardinal Wolsey, this served as the chapel to his college.

Aisles lengthened in 1878 by Scott; upper part of tower rebuilt in 1881.

The church was empty and disused for years but is now developed as an arts venue.

Ipswich Hospital Band use the church as their headquarters. The West door gateway was commissioned by them. Note the fish.
