The
parish church of St. Peter & St. Paul, at the bottom
of Church Street, is the oldest and most important church
in the town. It is mentioned in the Domesday Book of
1086. The church was later rebuilt in the Norman style,
although a fragment of the earlier church building is
incorporated into the east side of the tower. The oldest
of the church bells is dated 1603. St. Peter's was the
only parish church in Mansfield up until 1856, when St.
John's Church was built.
