St Leonard's, Old Warden

The Church of St Leonards is steeped in history, and is famous for its intricate carvings. But it is still a living Church where God is worshipped without fuss week by week. After a long closure for refurbishment, the church is now open for public worship again and  we look forward to welcoming people to our simple 8.45 a.m. Sunday service. It takes place every week apart from once a month, usually on the first Sunday of each month, when we have a shared service with our sister Churches, St Mary the Virgin, Northill or All Saint's Caldecote.
