Date:1910 - 1929 (c.)
Description:A church has stood on the site of St. Giles' for hundreds of years, though the appearance of the church has changed greatly. In 1721 the first of two major rebuilds was completed in the Georgian style by William Smith. This rebuilding of the church was caused by a fire, which had caused serious damage. In 1876 St. Giles' was rebuilt in the Gothic revival style by Sir George Gilbert Scott, giving us the church which still stands today. Throughout these changes to the building the tower, which dates back to the 13th century, has remained.
