Church of St Alkeda, Medieval parish church in Giggleswick, England
The Church of St Alkelda stands with stone walls, pointed arches, and large windows that reflect architectural elements from the 14th and 15th centuries.
The current structure, dating from 1350, replaced an earlier church that was destroyed in 1319 during attacks by Scottish forces in the region.
The church maintains its position as a central religious institution, hosting regular Wednesday morning communion services and connecting the community through various gatherings.
Located on Church Street in Giggleswick, North Yorkshire, the church opens its doors to visitors who wish to explore its architectural features and historical elements.
The church houses a recently discovered stained glass window depicting St Alkelda's martyrdom, adding to its collection of religious artifacts.
