St James is a Chapel of Ease: it is a beautiful building with no facilities, so evening services are by candlelight. We have 5 services each year: Christingle in December is always popular and very well attended; we hold our Easter Saturday evening Vigil, the St James Patronal Festival in July and the Harvest Festival in October. In addition we have a short service on Good Friday as part of our Walk of Witness.
