Church of St Leonard, Bledington

The Anglican Church of St Leonard at Bledington in the Cotswold District of Gloucestershire, England, was built in 12th century.

A recess with a three-light window was built leading from the south-west corner of the chancel into an archway to the south aisle.

The 15th-century south doorway, with moulded arch and head stops, retains part of its early door.

In 1548 Somerset, the Lord Protector, acting on behalf of the boy king Edward VI, ordered that all imagery should be removed from churches, and by 1650 St Leonards had lost its rood screen and window statues.

The ecclesiastical parish includes both Bledington and the hamlet of Foscot in Oxfordshire and forms part of the Evenlode Vale benefice of the Anglican Church,[9] within the Diocese of Gloucester.

The tub-shaped font is 12th-century,[8] the communion rails and altar table are 17th-century, and beside the 20th-century pulpit is an ancient wrought-iron hourglass stand.
