Church of St James

church building United Kingdom
St James Church, Avonwick. St James was consecrated in 1878. It was built by the Cornish-Bowden family of Black Hall in Avonwick. The family were very prominent in local affairs and believed a church was needed as the nearest was some 2 miles away. It is known as a "proprietary chapel" as it is still maintained by the family, and as such is one of only a handful left in England.
