Effigy of a priest, thought to be Jogn de Ardele, in a niche in the north chancel wall of St Leonard's church, Aston-le-Walls.
The effigy is situated near the north door of the chancel in a cinquefoil-headed arch with a crocketed canopy over the head. He is shown dressed in alb, stole, chasuble and amice, and of course wears the tonsure. It dates from the middle of the fourteenth century, and probably commemorates John de Ardele who was presented to the church in 1348.
