About

St Peter's Church is the parish church of Hever village. The Church is Grade 1 listed and there has been a church on this site for nearly 900 years. Volunteers open the church on a daily basis between 9.30 am and 10 am and close the church at around 5pm or dusk in the winter. The church contains many interesting features including the tomb of Queen Anne Boleyn's father, Sir Thomas Bullen. In the chancel is the Brass of Margaret Cheyne from C15th. Entrance is free but donations, placed in the safe at the rear of the church, towards the upkeep of this historic church are very gratefully received. No central government or central church funding is received and all income derives from church service collections, fund raising and donations from visitors. The church is opened by volunteers Wednesday to Sunday between 9.30 and 3.30. During January we are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Please check our website for details
