St Peter's is reputed to be the smallest church in Suffolk seating just sixty people. There has been a church on this site since the tenth century and many styles of architecture are represented including the Norman south doorway. The font is particularly beautiful with interesting stonework. A Millennium Yew is thriving near the entrance to the churchyard in an area which is not consecrated as it was once the site of the village school. Elsewhere there are a number of interesting gravestones. As the only community building in the village, St Peter's church is used for meetings and fund raising events. It is also the home of St Peter's Club which caters for children in Redisham and the surrounding area. Results of the childrens work is on display in the church.
Keys for the church can be obtained from the Churchwardens whose contact details are displayed on the noticeboard. It is hoped that the church will open during the day in the near future which will make access much easier.
