The church at Cromwell stands on gorund that has been hallowed for over a thousand years. Originally there would have been a wooden structure, replaced sometime around the Norman conquest by one of stone.
In the church as it stands today, there are windows dating from the 13th century, the south chancel arcade from the 14th century, and the tower built around 1430. Much of the present appearance of the church dates from a major renovation in 1873.
St Giles’ is a small but keen congregation with an empahsis on community involvement and community-based events. We are particularly proud to have had reputedly the first femal churchwarden in England – Frances Smith (d.1906). We have a service of Holy Communion once a month.
