About St Leonards Church

Engineering expert Nickolaus Pevsner depicted St Leonard's congregation in the villa of Warwick on Eden as 'the most vital Norman Church in Cumberland'. In spite of the fact that the area of Cumberland is a distant memory, St Leonard's remaining parts, as it has done since in any event the twelfth century.

St Leonard's once filled in as a house of prayer to Wetheral Priory, a little more than a mile toward the south. It was later connected to the Dean and Chapter of Carlisle.

The main specify of the congregation in authentic records was in 1088, so it more likely than not been one of the principal Norman holy places worked in the north. The vast majority of the present building is the twelfth century. The congregation is worked of red sandstone and comprises of a nave, chancel, and an adjusted apse - somewhat of an irregularity among English houses of worship.
