Description

Title:
Church of St. Giles, Medbourne
Caption / Description:

The church of St. Giles is located on the north side of the green in the centre of Medbourne, and consists of a chancel, nave with south aisle, north transept, south transept with east aisle, south porch, and west tower.

The building has been altered and rebuilt so much that it is almost impossible to reconstruct its history accurately, however there has been a church at Medbourne since the late 12th century. It is thought that the original church was destroyed by fire around 1250, and was then rebuilt shortly after this event. The nave and south aisle were probably rebuilt in the 13th and early 14th centuries, and the West Tower was constructed around 1400.
