Saint Giles’ Church Bletchingdon

The Church in Bletchingdon has been a centre of Christian worship for at least 1000 years. Parts of the present building, dedicated to Saint Giles, date from the 13th Century.  The Church has been extended and modernised over the centuries and is now cared for by the present generation of parishioners.

Saint Giles Church is open daily for private prayer or as a quite space.  People of all faiths, or none, are very welcome.

Bletchingdon is now part of the Akeman Benfice (the name taken from the old Roman road which ran through the area) which also includes the parishes of Chesterton, Hampton Gay, Kirtlington, Middleton Stoney, Wendlebury and Weston-on-the-Green.

Churchwarden: Judith Ledger, 3 Islip Road, Bletchingdon.  Tel:01869 351542
