St Peter's Church, Tickencote is a Church of England parish church in Tickencote, Rutland. Apart from the chancel arch and the sexpartite vaulting in the chancel, which are Norman and date from the mid 12th century, the building was rebuilt in 1792 at the expense of Miss Eliza Wingfield by the architect Samuel Pepys Cockerell.[1]

In 2019 the church passed into the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. While St Peter's underwent significant repair, the church was closed to visitors until June 2022.[2]
