Church Of St Leonard

The Church of St Leonard is a parish church built in 1902 by architect Fred Bath of Salisbury for Lady Ashburton. It is constructed of brick with Bath stone dressings and features a slate roof. The church's layout includes a small chancel, a crossing tower with transepts, a nave with aisles, and a northwest porch, all designed in the Perpendicular style.

The east end of the chancel is highlighted by a large five-light pointed window with foiled tracery and diagonal buttresses. The north and south walls each have transomed cinquefoiled lancet windows. The tower is supported by clasping buttresses at the corners, except on the southeast side, where there is an octagonal stair turret leading down to a vault beneath the transept. The transepts feature wide five-light cinquefoiled four-centred windows and diagonal buttresses.

The tower consists of two square plan stages, topped by a parapet and an octagonal stone bell stage, which is supported by flying buttresses and surmounted by a short lead spire. The aisles have wide cinquefoiled four-light four-centred arch windows with buttresses in between, as well as three-light windows similar to those in the clerestory. The east bay of the north aisle includes a gabled porch with a stone four-centred arch and blind tracery above, along with diagonal buttresses.

At the west end, diagonal buttresses support the aisles, while tall buttresses support the nave, which features pointed two-light windows in the aisles and a large foiled five-light window in the nave. Inside, there is 19th-century stained glass in the east and west windows, with Edwardian stained glass flowers in the other windows. The chancel is adorned with Jacobean style panelling, a stone piscina in the Perpendicular style, and recessed seats on the south side.

All arches are pointed and consist of two moulded orders on Perpendicular style capitals resting on octagonal shafts. The altar rails may date from the 17th century or be a good copy. The transepts contain an organ and a vestry, and there is a carved timber ogee arched screen. The pulpit features reset 16th-century carved panels integrated into suitable 19th-century Gothic work. The arcades are similar to the arches, with wall shafts descending from corbels of the roof to piers. The ceilings are plastered with ribbed designs. At the west end, there is a 19th-century stone font on marble shafts and a medieval stone coffin.
