Kilkhampton: St James the Great

We have regular services at 11.00am every Sunday to which everyone is very welcome.   Refreshments are served after the service.

Our Grade 1 Listed Church, the oldest part of which is the Norman doorway, has a number of noteworthy features including a complete set of medieval pews with very ornate end carvings, and several very early Clayton and Bell stained glass windows.
The organ is a very fine instrument, restored recently, which has parts said to come from Westminster Abbey.  The Church and extensive burial ground are generally in good repair. It was re-roofed in the past 20 years and the main path from the lych gate to the south porch was replaced last year. We have a peal of eight bells, rung regularly.

Safeguarding

We at St James the Great Church are committed to safeguarding all who worship with us and all who visit the church. We recognise that everyone has different levels of vulnerability and that each of us may be regarded as vulnerable at some time in our lives, but there are particular groups of people who need to be cared for. These include children and at-risk adults.

our Safeguarding Officer – Hilbre Watts on 01288 321331 ([email protected])
