St Peter's Church is an Anglican church in Hebden, North Yorkshire, in England.

Until the 19th century, Hebden was in the parish of St Michael's Church, Linton. The Hebden church was designed by the curate of Linton, John Pearson Fearon, in the Gothic revival style. It was constructed in 1841, for a total cost of £756. It had a capacity of 190 worshippers, although by 1851, average attendance was only 59. The church was grade II listed in 1994. [1] [2]

The church is built of stone with slate roofs, and consists of a nave, a south porch, a chancel and a west tower. The tower has two stages, lancet bell openings, a pierced parapet and corner pinnacles. The windows in the body of the church are lancets with hood moulds, and the east window is a triple lancet, the middle light higher. Inside, most of the original fixtures and fittings survive, including the pews, doors, pulpit, reading desk, altar rail, and stone font. The pipe organ was installed in 1894 and was manufactured by Harrison & Harrison. The stained glass in the east window is original, while that in the other windows was installed in 1884. There is a war memorial to World War I, consisting of a brass plaque. [1] [2] [3]
