St Leonard's Priory is a Benedictine nunnery founded in the medieval period, located in Warwickshire. The priory was dissolved during the Reformation, after which the site was converted to domestic use as a post-Dissolution house. Substantial remains of the priory structures survive, including evidence of the convent buildings and associated features. The site retains nineteenth-century garden remains that reflect its later use as a private residence, and it is now designated as an ancient monument in recognition of its archaeological and historical importance.
