Church of St Leonard the Less, Samlesbury, Anglican church in Samlesbury, England.
The Church of St Leonard the Less features a clerestoried nave with chancel, yellow and red sandstone walls, and stone slate roofs.
The initial structure from 1150 underwent major reconstruction in 1558 under Edward Stanley, followed by restorations in 1885 and a tower addition in 1900.
Regular services at St Leonard the Less follow the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, maintaining centuries-old Anglican traditions for the local congregation.
The church opens its doors for Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each month at 11:00 AM under the guidance of Reverend Karen Herschell.
The interior contains 16th and 17th-century box pews, a double-decker pulpit, and a baptistery concealed behind an oak screen in the south aisle.
