The Parish Church of St. Peter, Oughtrington is an example of Gothic Revival architecture. St. Mary's Church, Lymm, close-by Lymm Dam was in a state of disrepair by the middle of the 1800s so the Leigh family commissioned the noted Newcastle architect John Dobson to renovate it. The 1521 tower was preserved and raised, however the requirement for supplementary stonework rendered the tower being renovated in 1887. Lymm Cross, normally known simply as 'the Cross', is a Grade I listed structure. A 24-hour live webcam oversees the landmark. Additional web cams are strategically situated around.
