St Giles at Chesterton is a long low building mostly dating from the 14th and 15th centuries. It's interior has a tunnel-like effect, there being little structural difference between nave and chancel, all one long chamber without aisles, separated only by a modest screen.
It's most important features are the group of monuments at the west end of the nave, all to members of the Peyto family, builders of the renowned windmill nearby, and former occupants of the now vanished mansion that stood immediately north of the church (built 1650-60, demolished 1802; only an impressive gateway arch remains).
