Parish church
The oldest part of St Leonard's Church of England parish church is the 13th-century font. Most of the building is early 14th-century and was restored and extended to designs by George Gilbert Scott in 1864. It is a Grade II* listed building.[1] In 2009 the interior of the church was extensively reordered and a community shop and Post Office were built at the west end of the church.[2]
Yarpole is one of several Herefordshire parishes whose belltower stands separate from the church. The ground stage is built of stone; the roofs and upper stage are timber-framed. It is one of a number of partly or largely timber-framed belltowers in Herefordshire. It is a Grade I listed building. The tower was thought to be 13th-century,[3] but dendrochronology has dated its main timbers to 1192, making it one of the oldest timber-framed structures in England.[4]
Amenities
The village has a pub, The Bell, that is now a gastropub.[5] There is also a parish hall.[6]
