For at least eight hundred years a parish church on its hillock has watched over the village of Uley. Long ago it was dedicated in honour of St. Giles. Through all the political upheavals, and religious and economic changes of the centuries; through times of turbulence and placidity; of prosperity and depression; of diminution and of growth, St Giles’ Church has witnessed to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the service of Uley people. Within it more christenings, confirmations, weddings and funerals have taken place than we can ever know; worship, prayer and administration of the Sacraments have never ceased. For this we thank God today.
