St Peter and St Leonard's Church in Horbury, West Yorkshire, is a Georgian parish church completed in 1794 and designed by local architect John Carr. Built on a site of continuous ecclesiastical use dating back to a Norman church of around 1100, and likely preceded by an Anglo-Saxon structure, the present church represents a significant architectural intervention by one of the region's leading designers. Now a Grade I listed building, it remains an active Church of England parish church and a prominent local landmark within the Wakefield deanery.
