[4] St. Peter's has a number of monuments to members of the Dunche family who lived in Little Wittennham.

The most notable is a large monument to Sir William Dunche (died 1611) and his wife.

[3] The monument is missing a canopy and supports, but retains alabaster effigies of the couple,[3] a pair of obelisks[3] that would have surmounted the canopy, and a pair of tablets commemorating the couple's children.

They include Edmund Dunch (1657–1719), a Whig who was Queen Anne's Master of the Household and a member of the Kit-Kat Club.

On the opposite bank to the north-east, a little distance from the river itself, is the town of Dorchester-on-Thames which can be reached on foot via Little Wittenham Bridge.
