A plain Norman tub font in St Leonard's church, Grateley, possibly 12th century, or earlier. It is circular, tapering towards the base. It was found at Manor Farm, and has at some time been recut; the base does not belong to it, possibly the base of a cross.
The nave is Norman with an original window, and the porch has a simple Norman doorway. Part of the work in the tower is thought to be Saxon.
