*************

Chapel St. Leonards is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated 5 miles (8 km) north from the resort of Skegness.

The village is a location for caravan park holidays, is next to several miles of beach, and close to Fantasy Island, market towns, and the Lincolnshire Wolds.

A Chapel St. Leonards landmark is Chapel Point, 1 mile (1.6 km) north from the centre of the village. It is a restored part of a major Second World War coastal defence line; the restoration included the Gun Structure and the Viewing Platform. In recent years Chapel Point has become a location for birdwatchers, being visited by migrating birds such as the Mediterranean Gull.^[1]

The name of the village derives from a chapel at Mumby dedicated to St Leonard; the village history is tied to that of Mumby, both at one time being part of the same ecclesiastical parish.^[2]

The village Anglican church, also dedicated to St Leonard, was rebuilt in 1572 after a flood, and again rebuilt in 1794 on a smaller scale. There was further rebuilding in 1866 and in 1901 when the church was lengthened and the red-tiled tower, unique in Lincolnshire, was added. In 1924 the chapel was again enlarged and lengthened, and a new east window and reredos added. The present church holds parish registers dating from 1665, although Bishop's transcripts go back as far as 1568.^{[citation needed]}
