St John's Mission Church, on the hillside above Birchcliffe Road, Hebden Bridge, closed in the late 1960s and was subsequently converted into a house. A small memorial garden remains, with a plaque listing the names of those whose earthly remains lie there. The most recent date of death was 2004. An inscription on a planters states that the garden was presented to St John's Church in memory of Mona Shepherd. A stone seat provides a place to site and look at the view across the rooftops of the town.
