Description

The Church of St Leonard is an Anglican parish church built in 1843 by J Wilson of Bath. It features coursed and squared rubble with a slate roof and coped verges, designed in a Gothic style. The church has a small chancel with an embattled tower at the south-west corner, which includes a porch on the ground floor and tall bell chamber windows in the hexagonal upper stage. Gargoyles, likely reused from an earlier structure, adorn the building. The three-bay nave has 2-light windows with simple tracery, while the east window is a 3-light design with reticulated tracery. Inside, the church has a galleried interior with an elaborate arch-braced roof. The reredos appears to be reused from a 15th-century hood screen, and there are two early 19th-century wall monuments and three 18th-century chairs. Stained glass in the north window of the nave commemorates Hannah More.
