Church of St Leonard, Middleton, Medieval parish church in Middleton, England
The stone walls of St Leonard's Church feature Norman architectural elements, including an ancient doorway incorporated into the tower arch design.
Bishop Thomas Langley, Chancellor of England, directed the construction of the main church structure in 1412, replacing an earlier Saxon building.
The Flodden Window in the sanctuary displays the names of local archers who participated in the 1513 Battle of Flodden against Scotland.
The church welcomes visitors from April through September and holds regular Sunday services at 10:30 AM with additional virtual options available.
The church collection includes northern England's most extensive set of monumental brasses, featuring a Civil War officer in complete military armor.
