Description

The Church of St Giles is an Anglican parish church built around 1800. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a low-pitched slate roof with an octagonal cupola at the west end. The church is a small-scale, three-window chapel that includes coved eaves, a cornice, pedimental end gables, and leaded pointed windows with intersecting cames. The west end has a pointed door set within a Gothick doorcase that includes pilasters, an ogee hood, and a ball finial, along with a pointed light in the pediment above. The east end features a single pointed window that breaks the base of the pediment. The cupola has a timber open ogee-arched bell-stage topped with an ogee lead cap.

Inside, the church has a 19th-century open timber roof and pews. There is an 18th-century pulpit with a pulvinated frieze and tester, as well as an octagonal fielded panelled font made of ashlar on a panelled base, likely from the 18th century. This church replaced an earlier structure that was located closer to the river. A west gallery and box pews were removed in the late 19th century.
