Colemore is a largely abandoned village. There were houses southwest of the parish church and southeast of manor farm. The land where they stood is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[2]

Manor Farmhouse is an early 17th-century brick house, altered in the middle of the 19th century.[3]

The earliest parts of the former Church of England parish church of St Peter ad Vincula ("St Peter in Chains") are 11th-century. It is a Grade II* listed building.[4] It is now redundant and in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.[5]

The brothers John Greaves (1602–52, mathematician), Edward Greaves (1608–80, physician) and Thomas Greaves (1612–76, orientalist) were all sons of a rector of the parish and born in the village.[6] A later orientalist, Richard Pococke (1704–65), was also the son of a rector of the parish.
