Church of Saint Leonard, Bengeo, Norman church in Bengeo, England
The Church of Saint Leonard stands on a hilltop, offering views across the Beane and Lea valleys through its stone walls and tiled roof.
Built around 1120, this Norman structure remained the main parish church of Bengeo until Holy Trinity Church opened its doors in 1855.
The church interior contains medieval wall paintings discovered during the restoration work of 1938, reflecting the artistic practices of past centuries.
The building maintains regular Sunday services during summer months and welcomes visitors who can access nearby parking facilities.
The medieval apse of Saint Leonard's represents a rare architectural feature found in only two other churches throughout Hertfordshire.
