Description

The Church of St. Giles is a church built around 1855 by J. Billing of Reading. It features coursed squared stone and has an old plain-tile roof covering the nave, aisle, chancel, and vestry, along with a stone tower. The church has a 5-bay nave with a south aisle, a 2-bay chancel, a tower on the south side, and a vestry on the north side, all designed in the Early English style.

The tower has a 2-centre arched doorway at its base with double-leaf plank doors and lancet windows throughout. It consists of three stages with angle buttresses and paired louvred lancet openings at the third stage, topped by a broach spire. Inside, the chancel features a 2-bay braced collar-truss roof with king-posts, while the nave has a 5-bay arch-braced scissor-truss roof and the aisle has a lean-to roof.

Notable interior elements include painted commandments on the reredos, a 2-centred chancel arch supported by half-columns, a wooden pulpit on a stone plinth, and a 19th-century stone font.
