St Leonard's Church, Burton Leonard

It was demolished in 1877, being in poor repair, and considered too small for the village.

A new church on the same site was funded by a bequest from James Brown.

[1][2] The church, designed in the Gothic Revival style, is built of magnesian limestone with a red tile roof.

It consists of a nave, a south porch and a lower chancel.

It depicts the Ascension of Jesus, and was designed by Jean-Baptiste Capronnier.
