Church of St Leonard

The Church of St Leonard dates to the 14th century and was restored in 1843 by A.E. Perkins. It is constructed of blue lias, laid as coursed rubble, with a rock-faced south wall and porch, and tile and timber roofs. The church comprises a nave and chancel under a single roof, a west belfry, and a south-west porch.

The rebuilt south wall incorporates a single 19th-century two-light square-headed window. The south doorway has a chamfered surround and pyramid stops. The east window is a three-light Perpendicular window of the 19th century. The west wall has angle buttresses and a small 14th-century two-light Decorated window. A blocked, chamfered doorway with step stops under a timber lintel, and a 2-light square-headed window are also present in the north wall. A vertical joint is visible between the nave and chancel, indicating a later construction date for the chancel. The belfry is weatherboarded with a pyramidal roof and weathervane.

Internally, the nave features a shallow coved plaster ceiling and the chancel a flat plaster ceiling. Chamfered cross beams are located below the belfry. The walls are plastered, with a floor of 20th-century tiles, raised wooden floors beneath the benches, and old ledger stones on the sanctuary floor.

Fixtures include a benefaction board dated 1728, alongside 19th and 20th-century furnishings. A small octagonal font dates to the 19th century. The benches have simple ends, and a 19th-century polygonal timber pulpit has Gothic blind panels and steps with a brass handrail. The communion rail has twisted brass standards. The east window, installed in 1971, is by Francis W. Skeat and depicts Christ as a Priest with the Sacrament.

The church is a small 14th-century building that was significantly altered and restored in 1843 by A.E. Perkins, who rebuilt the south wall and added the porch. The building is designated Grade II for its surviving 14th-century fabric and retention of 19th-century internal and external character.
