Description
The Church of St. Giles is a parish church built between 1837 and 1839 by J. P. Pritchett. It is constructed from sandstone ashlar and features a tiled roof with crenellated parapets. The church includes a west tower, nave, aisles, and a chancel. The nave and aisles are combined and consist of six bays, which are divided by three-stage buttresses. There are two-light pointed windows, and the entrance to the west bays has windows above, all framed by crenellated surrounds and flanked by pinnacles. The tower is integrated into the nave and aisles, rising four stages above, with two stages above the nave. It has seven-stage diagonal buttresses, with strings set into the stages, and a crenellated parapet with pinnacles at the corners. The tower features tall two-light pointed openings for the bell chamber, a three-light pointed west window with panel tracery, and a pointed left door. The chancel is short and consists of one bay, with a four-light pointed east window that has panel tracery. The interior was inaccessible during the resurvey in July 1985.
