St. Peter's Church is a Grade-II listed church located in Tollerton, Nottinghamshire. There has been a church in Tollerton since before the Norman Conquest but its site is not known. The present church's foundations were laid towards the end of the 12th Century. Little is known of the medieval church except that it had a gabled tower. CEL Group (1989) Ltd were selected to be Principal contractor on this project, to restore and conserve the masonry to the top of the Tower. Individual stones that were in need of replacement were recorded, and new stones were banked and carved to match existing. The stone was procured from Hollington quarry, giving a good selection of colour to match the existing. Schedule of Works included; Repair, removal and replacement of stone to the Tower Walls and re-pointing in lime mortar.
