Church of St Giles, Church Walk, Leigh-on-Mendip - Somerset Council (UA)

Medieval parish church dating from c1350, rebuilt c1500. Well maintained. The chancel roof was repaired with Listed Places of Worship Roof Repairs Grant and in 2017 the congregation received National Lottery Heritage Fund Grant for Places of Worship to address the Nave roof. Some internal reordering has been undertaken. Iron cramps are pushing apart the joints in the parapets and the south aisle parapet is leaning so this work is still required.
