Scene Description: Source caption: "St Giles Parish Church, Water Stratford . Situated in Water Stratford, this Church was originally built in 1240 AD. However, from the time of the Reformation in the 16th Century, the church fell into disrepair, until by the early 19th Century it was considered dangerous. So in 1828, the body and chancel were rebuilt whilst the tower remained standing but was thoroughly repaired. This view is of the South (main) entrance."
