Said to be the oldest building in Wolverhampton, St Peter's Collegiate Church is on the site of an medieval monastery but itself was largely built in the 14th and 15th centuries. The red sandstone building is a clear example of the Decorated style, particularly ornate and impressive. Inside the church, the nave has a very high ceiling with highly decorated roof timbers. There is a 15th century font and an incredibly impressive pulpit. The chancel is long and narrow, with another impressive ceiling. The woodwork is intricately carved. The church is fairly easy to access, and the surrounding gardens are pleasant.

A beautiful, large Collegiate Parish Church dating back to 1480 - lovely stained glass, classical achitecture, with large stone pillars and high vaulted ceiling, with an interesting history. The Father Willis organ is imposing, overlooking the Nave altar and currently undergoing a £300,000 overhaul. Has one of the largest choirs in the West Midlands who sing to a very high standard. The small anti-chapel offers peace and solitude. Well worth a visit either just to walk around or attend a service.
