There are individual entries for some of the Rodings in the Domesday survey but not for Leaden Roding. The entry for this church in the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments (Essex, 1916-1923) reports a doorway of the late-11th century, and a later font: "Font: octagonal bowl with moulded lower edge, plain stem, two staples, 14th-century; cover with shaped cross-piece as handle, probably 17th-century." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: TL5899813248] notes: "Parish church, C11 and C13, altered in C14, C15 and C19. [...] The font has an octagonal bowl with moulded lower edge, plain stem, 2 staples, C14, and cover with shaped cross-piece as handle, C17." The entry for this church in the CRSBI (2018) states: "The church of Leaden Roding was given by William de Warenne to his Cluniac Priory of Castle Acre (Norfolk) which he founded between 1087 and 1089."
