Church Of St Leonard

The Church of St Leonard is a parish church built between 1789 and 1792, funded by the Sneyd family, and later extended from 1902 to 1903 by Gerald Horsley. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar, with a roof that is partly tiled and partly covered with stone slate, concealed at the eaves by crenellation. The church features a tower, a nave with a south porch, and a chancel.

The tower has three stages, with bands at each stage and four-stage angle buttresses that transition into pilasters at the bell chamber level, topped with pinnacles above a crenellated parapet. The bell chamber openings, which originally had Y-tracery and were taller, are now partially blocked. The west window has four lights, with two outer lights now blocked, featuring panel tracery, trefoil lights, and a Tudor-arched head.

The nave consists of four bays divided by three-stage buttresses, with bands at the cill and eaves levels. It has Y-tracery windows, and the south-west window is partially obscured by a gabled porch that has an oval plaque dated 1790 above it. There is also a segmental pedimented plaque on the south-east bay, which features a fluted urn in the tympanum.

The chancel, designed by Horsley in 1902-3, has one bay with a three-sided canted east end, with angles topped by crocketed pinnacles. It features a Tudor arch and a four-light east window with curvilinear tracery, along with a low-relief crucifixion above it.
