St Leonard
Thrybergh, Yorkshire
St Leonard’s is a very interesting old church with Saxon origins dating back to 900AD as well as a number of periods of construction that can be seen in its walls, including signs of a Norman apse.
It is a brick built building using Conisborough bricks, dressed with Mexborough stone from the quarry of Messers James Cavill & Co. The internal woodwork to roof principals are of pitchpine.
There is a lovely triptych stained glass east window picturing St George, St Peter & Christ. Other windows are of cathedral glass in diamonds. There are some interesting monuments on the walls, including war memorials for the First and Second World Wars. There is a stone font.
