Tower to Church of St James

The tower to the Church of St. James is a 15th-century structure that was restored in 1879 and 1894. It is constructed of ashlar, red brick, and rubble, primarily rendered. The tower features a parapet with two remaining gargoyles on the south side and is diagonally buttressed, set on a moulded plinth, and consists of three stages with decorative bands. A stair turret is located on the southeast side.

On the west side, there is a re-set upper part of a blocked moulded arched 15th-century doorway, which has a rectangular hood mould and spandrels decorated with blind tracery. Above this doorway is a single 15th-century arched three-light window with panel tracery, although all lights are blocked except for a portion of one that retains a single lozenge lead glazing bar casement. This window features a hood mould and worn label stops, with a small rectangular light positioned above it.

The east side includes a basket-arched doorway with a plank door, above which is a single lozenge lead glazing bar casement that shows evidence of the former nave roof line. There is also a single quatrefoil set into a rectangle above this. The south side has a similar single quatrefoil.

The bell chamber openings on the south side are pointed segmental arches, each containing two arched and cusped lights, with remnants of tracery, hood moulds, and human head label stops. The south opening is partially obscured by a clock face. The stair turret, which ends beneath the bell chamber stage, has a single rectangular opening, with a quatrefoil set into a lozenge above it, supported by a brick relieving arch. A sundial, a decorative cross arrow loop, and a small rectangular opening are located above this. The nave of the church was destroyed during the Commonwealth.
