chapel was fitted up so as to accommodate the parishioners of St Leonards and the students attending the United College and for their use it continues to be appriated [appropriated ?]. The walls of the old parish church still remain in a tolerable state of preservation but the tower and spire connected with it were pulled down soon after the transference. The area of the church formed a parallelogram of about 70 feet long by 18 wide within the walls and the style of its architecture was neat and appropriate. The interior still contains several monuments inserted into the walls to the memory of individuals connected with St Leoanard's College in the earlier periods of its existence but the most elegant of them has been constructed of a species of stone but ill fitted for encountering the vicissitudes of the weather and is fast hastening to a state of utter decay: Stat.
