More about this scene

St Giles's Church is virtually unique in possessing an apse at its west end - apses (rounded ends) usually occur at the east of churches. This is a Norman church, rebuilt in the 1880s. Langford was entirely agricultural until the arrival of a water-pumping and treatment plant in the 1920s. It employed around 50 local men.
