St. Peter's at Little Barrington dates back to Norman times. Originally it was a chapel of Great Barrington. The south doorway is a fine example of very late Norman work. The font is 15th Century.
On the east side of the porch exterior, there is an interesting group of four stone figures. This is an 18th Century memorial to the Tayler family with an inscription, which is now very weathered.
The placid River Windrush gently flows through the valley, below and to the north of the church.
