St Giles' Church is a church in Blaston, Leicestershire. It is a Grade II listed building. [3]
The current church was built in 1878, [4] [5] to the design of George Edmund Street, [3] replacing an earlier church. It consists of a nave, chancel, bell-cote containing 1 bell [4] and a south porch. [3] There are 2 fonts, one of them dates to the time of the building of the church and the other one is earlier. [6]
The nave has a painting of St Jerome on the north wall. It was painted by Decio Vilares in 1877. [4] The Brazilian flag was also designed by a Décio Villares but, despite different spellings, it is unknown whether this is the same person. The nave's screens have 2 segments of stained glass. [6]
