Leonard Stanley is a village and civil parish in the district of Stroud in Gloucestershire, England, set on the edge of the Cotswolds amid rolling farmland and limestone-built cottages. It sits close to the small streams that feed into the River Frome, giving it a tucked-away rural feel while remaining within easy reach of Stroud and the transport corridors towards Gloucester and Bristol.
The village has a long history as an agricultural and cloth-producing community, with a medieval parish church and several listed stone houses reflecting that past, and former small mills and workshops that once linked it to the wider Stroud valley textile economy. Today it retains a strong local community, countryside walking on the doorstep and a characterful mix of historic buildings and modern commuters.
