Description: | White's Directory of 1853 notes: "The church, dedicated to St Giles, is an ancient fabric, with a chancel and tower, in which are three bells. It was re-pewed, and the north aisle rebuilt about 9 years ago, at a cost of £300." Much of the church was built in the Perpendicular Gothic style.
The Gothic style (12th-16th centuries) is characterised by strong vertical lines, high vaulted ceilings, pointed window and door openings and buttressed walls, and falls between the Romanesque and Renaissance periods. Gothic Perpendicular (1375-1540) is further marked by the use of horizontal and perpendicular lines. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Grimm, Samuel Hieronymus | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
