Church of St Margaret, Medieval church in Bowers Gifford, England.
The Church of St Margaret features a two-stage tower with diagonal buttresses, coursed ashlar walls, and flint construction with slate roofs.
Built in the mid-14th century, the church received its bell stage during the early 16th century and underwent substantial restoration work in 1910.
The interior contains a brass memorial to Sir John Giffard, one of three remaining brasses depicting knights who served King Edward III in France.
The Grade II* listed building maintains regular services, offering visitors access to view its architectural elements and historical artifacts during designated hours.
Sir Charles Nicholson designed and crafted the intricate chancel screen in 1926, demonstrating exceptional ecclesiastical craftsmanship of the period.
