History

A hamlet church ...

... that has expanded as Ickenham has grown.

St Giles' Church is packed full of over 650 years of history. The oldest part of the building is believed to date back to 1335 when the first Rector of the Parish of Ickenham was appointed. A North Aisle was added in the 16th Century, an extension to the west end of the Nave in 1959 and a 2nd storey extension above the Choir Vestry was opened in 1986.

Visit the church and discover the links with many of the famous families in the history of Ickenham. Experience the place where services of worship and prayer have taken place for over 6 centuries. Better still, attend a service of worship and join with the living Church, the 'Body of Christ' who inhabit this beautiful building.
