Charles Anthony Peter Duncombe, 6th Baron Feversham

Charles Anthony Peter Duncombe, 6th Baron Feversham (3 January 1945 - 29 March 2009, Castle Hill Hospital, Kingston-upon-Hull, Yorkshire) was a British nobleman. He is most notable as the founding chairman of the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and from 1969 to 1976 as the governor of Leeds Polytechnic.

His baptismal name was Charles Anthony Peter Duncombe-Anderson, but on 12 March 1954 he changed this to Charles Anthony Peter Duncombe by deed poll. His parents were Colonel Anthony John Duncombe-Anderson and Gioranna Georgina Valerie McNalty. He studied at Eton College and inherited the title of Baron Feversham from his distant relation the 3rd Earl of Feversham in 1963 (the earldom had been created later and went extinct on the 3rd Earl's death) - the 3rd Earl and 6th Baron were both great-great-great grandsons of Charles Duncombe, 1st Baron Feversham. He was succeeded in 2009 by his son Jasper Duncombe.
