Description
The Church of St Giles is an Anglican church built in 1851 by Rev. B. Perkins, Vicar of Wotton Under Edge, in the Early English style. It features coursed rubble with freestone dressing and has Cotswold stone slate roofs. The church includes a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a chancel, and a south porch. It has lancet windows throughout, with 2-light windows under drip moulds in the aisles, 2-light windows with trefoil heads in the clerestory, and a single-light window in the chancel under a continuous drip mould. Inside, there is a 4 bay arcade and a roof supported by carved kingpost trusses. The glass in the church was made in 1889 by Lavers and Westlake, with the east window of the south aisle created in 1888 by Kemp.
