This lovely 12th century church is interesting for its unusual shape tower, clerestory and effigies of women wearing different head-dresses.

This 'Active Service Roll' dating back to WW1 is on display in St. Leonard's church. It is a touching document which must have been closely monitored by the villagers of Bledington in the war years as many of the names listed were marked as killed in action, died of wounds or died of sickness (also marked with "RIP") or as 'Prisoner in Germany'. Thirteen names of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for King and Country are listed on the war memorial in the churchyard.
