The Parish Church of Hebden Bridge, was consecrated on 5th October 1833.
The church is dedicated to St James the Great, and was built on land given by the Revd James Armytage Rhodes and his wife Mary, who lived at nearby Mytholm Hall.
This attractive single arched packhorse type bridge has steps at both sides which has lead to the conclusion that it was probably only used as a footbridge for Strines Farmhouse and Colden.
