St Leonard's Church - Cotheridge, Worcestershire
St Leonard's Church - Cotheridge, Worcestershire
This church lies just south of the A44 road from Worcester westwards towards Bromyard. Its origins lie in the 12th century with alterations during the 15th century. Restoration was carried out in 1684 for the Berkeley family. There is also some work from the 18th and 19th centuries. There is a memorial to Thomas Berkeley who died overseas at a young age. Was it really 1970 when my first and only visit....? The Church was listed Grade II* on 29th July 1959 by the then English Heritage, now Historic England. Time photo taken not available. Sources: British Listed Buildings, The King's England Worcestershire - Arthur Mee - Hodder and Stoughton 1968.
