St Michael's Church, Linton

St Michael's Church is the parish church of Linton, North Yorkshire, a village in England. The oldest part of the church is the 12th-century north arcade, while the chancel arch and south arcade are 13th century. The chancel was rebuilt in about 1350, and in the 15th century most of the windows were replaced and a clerestory was added. The church was restored by John Varley in 1861, who added the south porch and rebuilt the bellcote with the original stones. The building was grade II* listed in 1954. The church is built of stone with a stone slate roof, and consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a south porch, and a chancel with aisles. At the west end is a bellcote on two tiers of three corbels, with a cornice, paired round-arched bell openings with moulded surrounds, and a pyramidal roof with a cross finial. Inside, there is a 12th-century cylindrical stone font, while all the other fitting date from the 1861 restoration.

Hebden lies within the ecclesiastical parish of Linton, North Yorkshire, with the parish church being St. Michael's.

It had a capacity of 190 worshippers, although in 1851, average attendance was only 59. The church was grade II listed in 1994. 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. It has a single bell cast at Whitechapel Bell Foundry in 1847, and hung in 1848. 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 original entrance was on the north-east side. The current main entrance with its porch on the south-west of the building were built during restoration work in 1884. The pipe organ was installed in 1894 and was manufactured by Harrison & Harrison of Durham. It was refurbished in 2010 by A. Carter of Wakefield, and has been granted a Grade II Historic Organ Certificate. 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. The churchyard contains one Commonwealth war grave, that of a Royal Air Force airman of the Second World War.

Hebden, North Yorkshire

Hebden ( HEB-dərn) is a village and civil parish in the county of North Yorkshire, England, and one of four villages in the ecclesiastical parish of Linton. It lies near Grimwith Reservoir and Grassington, in Wharfedale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. In 2011 it had a population of 246. Hebden has a church, a hotel and public house, a tea room, a community hall, and is served by buses. Until 1983 it had a primary school. Hebden straddles a cross roads. The east–west B6265 road connects it with Grassington 1.7 miles (2.7 km) to the west, and from there south to the market town of Skipton, 11.5 miles (18.5 km) from Hebden. To the east, the road crosses a bridge over Hebden Gill, built in 1827, and thence over the watershed to Pateley Bridge in Nidderdale, 8.5 miles (13.7 km) distant. Main Street, the village high street, continues south as Mill Lane, towards the bank of the River Wharfe and the villages of Hartlington and Burnsall, the latter being just over 2 miles (3.2 km) away. The road to the north runs to the small hamlet of Hole Bottom, from there continuing as a track onto Grassington Moor. The layout of the village largely originates from manorial times, but during the 19th century the village grew to become a substantial industrial community with lead mining and a textile mill as the main sources of employment. Since then it has reverted to a rural community, and is a focal point for walkers and cyclists wishing to enjoy the local countryside.
