The Aldworth Giants

St. Mary's church in Aldworth contains numerous monuments to the De La Beche family who were influential local land owners in the 14th century. These monuments are known as the “Aldworth Giants” and are supposed to be life size representations but in fact some of the knights are over seven feet tall. The collection is the largest number of medieval memorials to a single family to be found in a parish church.
