Situated in Wrexham town centre and the most predominant landmark is St.Giles, Parish Church. There is documented evidence that a church of some sort stood on this ground as early as the 11th century and was dedicated to the Celtic saint Silin or Silyn (Silin & Giles both translate to Aegidius in Latin). The present site was first erected around 600 years ago but the tower was burnt down in 1463 and the greater part of the church was rebuilt in the second half of the 15th century. It was then expanded in stages with possible contributions from Lady Margaret Beaufort, the mother of King Henry VII (her husband was Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby with strong connections to Wrexham).

Great camera and lens combination. Love churches and the inclusion of the mauve alter cloth lifts this one. .

A little over-processed, in my opinion, but still a 10.
