The Church of St Leonard in Rodney Stoke, Somerset, England, was built around 1175 and is a Grade I listed building.[1]
The interior of the church contains a screen, bearing the date 1624, the gift of Sir Edward Rodney,[2] which includes a representation of the martyrdom of St Erasmus, who was killed by having his entrails removed.[3]
The church underwent Victorian restoration in the 1870s when a slow combustion stove was installed in a pit in the floor.[4]
The parish is part of the Rodney Stoke with Draycott benefice which is within the Axbridge deanery.[5]
