Hi All

Just trying to find out if St Leorards Church in Colchester, was changed at some time , to St. Stevens?

Many Thanks.

There are 2 churches with the name of St Leonards in Colchester. One in what was the village of Lexden, now a suburb, and one at the Hythe towards the docks. Neither have had a name change as far as I am aware.
