Tydd St Giles village church rare detached bell tower
Tydd St Giles church Cambridgeshire, Black and White photo prints, canvas wall art pictures.
This is one of the most stunning churches I know of, from the roadside it looks perfect and when walking around the churchyard it really is a stunning sight. The Norman church dedicated to St. Giles, dominates the eastern side of the village. The church, although extensively redesigned in the 19th century, still retains its Norman architecture and feel. The West Window was designed by Alan of Walsingham, the designer of the famous "octagon" lantern on Ely Cathedral, this rare clear glass medieval window (which survived the depredations of Oliver Cromwell) fills the whole of the western end of the building. All of the woodwork and pews in the church are later Victorian additions. In the Lady Chapel, there are still some remnants of the church's original medieval stained glass, the rest of the church's stained glass is Victorian. The East Window shows the life and passion of Jesus Christ, while the North-Western Window depicts the church's (and village's) patron saint, Saint Giles and St. Paul (one of the patrons of the Church of St. Peter & Paul in Wisbech). The outer southern wall of the church still has the remains of a medieval sundial, which was in use when the church was a cell of the priory in Wisbech.

North porch, Tydd St Giles church, photography prints and stock photo downloads.
The north porch has an outer arch of two orders with moulded caps, and a two-light trefoil-headed window on the east and west. The inner doorway has continuous mouldings. The buttresses throughout the building are almost entirely 14th century, of two setoffs with gabled tops. The north aisle has a plain plastered lean-to roof which is probably the 17th century; the other roofs are modern and poor. The stunning St Giles church Tydd St Giles Cambridgeshire UK, after rare snowfall here it was the perfect time for me to get out of photographing the local churches.
