*************

St Peter's Church is in the village of Heversham, Cumbria, England. It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Kendal, the archdeaconry of Westmorland and Furness, and the diocese of Carlisle. Its benefice is united with that of St Thomas, Milnthorpe.^[1] The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building.^[2] It stands on one of the oldest Christian sites in the historic county of Westmorland.^[3]

The oldest fabric in the present church dates from the 12th century. Additions and alterations were made during the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries.^[2] Rebuilding took place following a fire in 1601.^[2][3] A considerable restoration was undertaken in 1868 by the Lancaster architects Paley and Austin, who also added the tower.^[2] The restoration included rebuilding the north arcade, partly rebuilding the chancel arch, renewing the roofs of the chancel, and the aisles, and replacing the seating in the church.^[4]
