St Peter's Church is the parish church of Reighton, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.

A church was built in Reighton in the 12th century. In 1848, it was described as "extremely ancient", [1] and it had seating for up to 104 worshippers. [2] The church was largely rebuilt between 1897 and 1905, to a design by Frederick Stead Brodrick, Arthur Lowther and William Walker. They retained only the chancel and an arcade from the original building. The church was grade II* listed in 1966. [3]

The church is built of sandstone, and has a roof partly of tile and partly of slate. It consists of a nave, a north aisle, a south porch, a chancel and a west tower. The tower has two stages, with diagonal buttresses, two-light bell openings, and a coped parapet. The porch has a round-arched opening, and the south door has Norman jambs. Inside, there is a square Norman font, which Historic England describe as "magnificent". [3] [4]
