Stanton Fitzwarren is a village and civil parish northeast of Swindon, England. It is historically in Wiltshire, but is now part of the unitary authority of Swindon. ==Parish church== The Church of England parish church of Saint Leonard is Norman.〔Pevsner & Cherry, 1975, page 477〕 The north and south doorways, the chancel arch and a window in the north wall all survive from this period.〔 The cylindrical font is an important Norman sculpture depicting eight virtues, eight vices, the Church, the Evil One and a six-winged seraph.〔 The Norman building had an apse, of which the foundations were discovered during restoration work in 1865.〔 The chancel was rebuilt in the 14th century with a flat east wall and east window. The bell tower was added in 1631.〔 The church has been listed as grade 1 by English heritage. St. Leonard's restoration (1865) was completed by the Gothic Revival architect J.W. Hugall. In 1891 the nave was lengthened westwards and the south porch was added.〔 During one of the 19th century rebuildings a new east window was inserted in the chancel and the 14th century one was re-used as the centrepiece of a folly in the grounds of Stanton House.〔Pevsner & Cherry, 1975, page 478〕 St. Leonard's parish is now part of a single Church of England benefice with the parishes of South Marston and Stratton St Margaret.〔(A Church Near You: St Leonard, Stanton Fitzwarren )〕
