St James
St James's Church lies in the small village of West Littleton on the border of Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. The church is Grade 2 listed and has a particularly fine 13th century turret and bellcote. Following a fire in the 19th century, the church was largely rebuilt, including a new porch and vestry, in 1855 under the supervision of Thomas Wyatt, architect of the Salisbury Diocese.
There are two services every month - one a service of Holy Communion and the other a traditional service of matins, both from the Book of Common Prayer. Matins is usually led by a Licensed Lay Minister (Lay Reader) and both services welcome any visitors. Holy Communion is a said service but there are hymns during the service of Matins.
The church is open during the day and regularly welcomes visitors from city churches who come to pray and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
