Church of St Leonard, Misterton with Walcote - Harborough

Parish Church of coursed limestone, sandstone with ashlar dressings. Built in C14 and restored 1863 by William Smith. West tower with octagonal spire, nave with clerestory, north and south aisle, and chancel. The church has been the subject of heritage crime in 2017, 2018 and 2019. Repairs were recently undertaken in 2020. The rainwater goods are inadequate and have caused subsequent damp, requiring further investigation. The Parochial Church Council remain keen to effect repairs.
