My Great Grandparents Albert Wells and Edith Ann Judson married in this church on 24th December 1912. Edith was born Judson and was born at Holme and so may have been Baptised in this church as well.

My great-grandfather was born in the village as were my grandfather and father. My great-grandfather was a chimney sweep and wore a patch over one eye, his name George Henry Antliff.

My Grandad
The funeral of my grandad, Joseph Cobb, was the last one to take place at St Leonard's Church before it was demolished.
