St Giles Church, Stanton St Quintin, Wiltshire,

            Lych gate was erected. In 1889-90
The church is dedicated to St. Giles who was an abbot in Provence, dying c.720. He was of royal descent but gave away his property and became a hermit.
A church is known to have existed in the 12th century and the lower stages of the tower and much of the nave are of around 1125.
Over the centuries the structure has undergone a number of significant changes. In more recent times there have been three significant developments in the Church – a War Memorial has been unveiled, a stained-glass window has been dedicated to the WAAFS and there has been a major reordering of the interior
The churchyard was closed for burials in 1899 after the extension on the other side of the road had been opened in 1898. This is the site of Commonwealth War Graves.
Church of St Giles is a Grade II* listed building.
