Rousham, St Leonard & St James
The Church of St Leonard & St James, Rousham is in the grounds of Rousham House, which is itself the principal part of this tiny Cotswold village. As directed, I parked in the car park for Rousham House and walked the short distance to the church.
Ringing is on the ground floor and there a doors in the arch. The church was quite dark and gloomy and had a neglected feel to it.

My first visit was on Thursday 16th May 2012 as the second tower
[1st,
3rd,
4th]
of the 271st Mid-week Outing
of the
Four Shires Guild.
I started with a touch of Stedman Doubles on bell #4 and ended by ringing down the Tenor.
