Clent Parish Church
St. Leonard’s is a pretty, rural church, set below the south flank of Clent
and Walton Hills, in the north of the county of Worcestershire.
We are part of the ‘Greater Dudley’ Deanery of churches in the Diocese
of Worcester.
St. Leonard is affiliated with the neighbouring churches of St. John and St.
Saviour in Hagley. We have recently said ‘Goodbye’ to Rev. Richard Newton as he
takes his retirement after more than 28 years faithful service to our community.
Rev. Kim Topham continues in post.
