Church Of St James

The Church of St. James is a parish church that was rebuilt in 1818, with alterations made in 1884. The church features a rendered nave and chancel topped with slate roofs, and includes a later 19th-century west vestry and south porch constructed with some coursed rubble stone and ashlar dressings. The exterior has offset buttresses, and the west wall of the nave displays a two-light traceried window with a small lancet above, along with a west vestry that has a shallow gable. The north and south sides each have two bays of two-light stone windows with arched lights and Tudor hoodmoulds, while the south side also features a late 19th-century shallow porch with moulded arches. At the east end of the nave, there is a bell-cote with a cusped niche. The chancel is adorned with a moulded parapet and a three-light traceried east window.

Inside, the nave boasts a four-centred vault with narrow moulded wooden ribs and a cornice. There is a moulded arch leading to the vestry and another moulded four-centred arch leading to the chancel. Notable fittings include a fine late 17th-century pulpit with arcaded panels, split baluster ornament, and a moulded sounding board, as well as a 17th-century table with baluster legs and an ornamental frieze. A small amount of 17th-century panelling can be found at the east end of the nave. Other fittings and stained glass are from the 19th century, including one window signed by "Alex. Gibbs."

Monuments within the church include a re-used 15th-century tomb-chest with three cusped roundels and shields, which has been incorporated into a monument to two wives of Sir John Aubrey, designed in the early 19th century in Gothick style. There is also a monument to Sir John Aubrey from 1826 on the north wall, created in a similar style, along with a marble tablet commemorating Patty Mary Aubrey, who died in 1774, and other later monuments dedicated to members of the Aubrey family.
