St Giles is an Anglican Church in the Parish of the Watling
Valley, situated in the west flank of Milton Keynes. We are
in the Archdeaconry of Buckingham, in the Diocese of
Oxford. It has been described as an “Anglican Peculiar”, for
years this Church stood by itself in the middle of fields, the
village of Tattenhoe having disappeared long ago. The
present church buildings date from 1540 though it is
thought that a church stood here as long ago as 1100. It
has been derelict many times, restored and kept going by a
succession of churchwardens.
