St Giles Church Hampton Gay

Please help us save the church!








Our little church of St Giles at Hampton Gay, sits on its own, in the middle of the fields. With no electricity or water, it exists today, exactly as it did 150 years ago. 

Preserving The Historic Fabric of Hampton Gay Church

The Tower

Historically important due to its age, possibly the oldest part of the entire fabric of the church. As you can see the Louvred windows have rotted, much of the stone at the top has become loose and dangerous

The Gable End

Whilst not obvious in this image, there is a large settlement crack to the right of the window, which needs to be stitched, to prevent further damage.

Please Help us Support the Preservation of St Giles

Whilst the parish of Hampton Gay is a tiny parish, there are only six households, the church itself serves a large and diverse community of people. As part of the Akeman benefice we are a popular place for worship during the summer months, and our candlelit Christmas service sees families from all the surrounding villages walk across the fields to sing nine lessons and carols. 
The church is also at the intersection of a number of very popular walks and travellers from far and wide stop and picnic or explore the church yard before continuing their journey. 
The local trainline runs very close by and our little church, acts as a picture perfect flash of history as people journey across the countryside.
