St Peter's Church is a flint building dressed with stone and with a roof of tiles, standing in a prominent position next to Preston Manor on higher ground than the rest of Preston Village.
 Built in the Early English style, it has a series of broad lancet windows—three on each side of the nave, and also in the chancel.
 Most have been restored from their original state.
 The tower at the west end is narrow and relatively short; it has much narrow lancet windows and contains three bells, one of which may be 15th-century.
 In its present form, the church consists of a chancel with barrel roof and chamfered arch, nave with no aisles, vestry with an elaborate chimney, and a timber-framed, hipped-roofed porch.
 Ewan Christian's renovations in 1878 added a set of intricately carved choir stalls; one of the carvings represents a Native American.
 There are memorial tablets and stained glass windows commemorating members of the Stanford family.
 A reredos was added after the 1907 restoration.
 The altar is formed from a table-tomb—the burial place of Edward Eldrington (or Elrington), the lord of the Preston Manor who died in 1515.
