The tenor had been cast in 1652[6] but was recast by Henry Bond of Burford,[7] Oxfordshire in 1897.[8] John Clark of Evesham[7] cast the second bell in 1711.[8] The treble bell was cast in 1766[6] but was recast by William Blews & Sons of Birmingham[7] in 1878.[8] In the churchyard are the base and shaft of a mediaeval cross, from which the top has been lost and replaced with a 17th or early 18th century sundial.[5] St. Peter's is now part of a single benefice with the neighbouring parishes of Oxhill and Tysoe.[9] AmenitiesWhatcote has a public house, the Royal Oak, Owned by Henry Jervis of Tysoe]].
