St Giles' Church, Imber

The church was built of dressed limestone in the late 13th century, replacing a church which had stood on the site since the 12th century. The tower with its five pinnacles, and the north and south aisles, followed in the 14th century. Extensive rebuilding was undertaken in the 19th century. The church no longer has its pews or other fittings; the remains of medieval paintings can still be seen on the walls, including a set of 17th-century bell ringing changes painted on the north wall of the tower. Unlike the rest of the parish, St Giles's church and its graveyard remained in the hands of the Diocese of Salisbury, although access to them was and is controlled by the Ministry of Defence.…

Open days and occasional events such as music performances are held on days when public access to the village is permitted by the Ministry of Defence. These are typically at Easter and during August. Public access to the church and village site is strictly prohibited at other times. Small numbers of former residents have been buried in the churchyard; a report on the 2023 burial of Ray Nash (whose family had left the village in 1936) stated that the previous funeral had taken place ten years earlier.
