Situated just beyond Riddlesworth Hall and school, St Peter's has an early 14th-century west tower and the plain octagonal font is 15th century.There is a fine monument to Sir Drue Drury (died 1617) of a kneeling knight with angels holding back curtains.

It is home to the Riddlesworth Hall, a listed Grade II former country house, built in 1792 and subsequently reconverted into a private preparatory school, where Diana, Princess of Wales was a pupil.

[2] Set in large grounds, the school was acquired by the Confucius International Education Group in 2015 and catered for children from the age of 7.

[3] Riddlesworth Camp was one of five set up in Norfolk to receive 4,500 troops and housed the 3rd Heavy Machine Gun Battalion of the 3rd Carpathian Infantry Division.

The majority of the Polish troops from this camp decided to stay in England after 1948 and were gradually found jobs in the locality and made new lives for themselves.
