St James church in Alveston village near Stratford. The parish is much bigger than
St James church in Alveston village near Stratford.
The parish is much bigger than it first appears, stretching to the Clopton Bridge into Stratford and including the communities of Tiddington and part of suburban Stratford south of the river.
The church was built in 1839, part of the expansion and gentrification of what previously had been a very rural village.
The parish, however, is much older, the boundaries were set in 983a.d. and the recently restored chancel of the Old Church lies to the north down Mill Lane.
The Church is not so much beautiful as impressive. The Chancel, vestry and Lady Chapel were added in 1879 and the Chancel screen and much of the decoration appeared in the early years of the 20th Century during the long incumbency of Canon Llewellyn.
Circa 1960

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases St James church in Alveston village near Stratford, a parish that extends far beyond what meets the eye. Nestled amidst the picturesque countryside, this church's influence reaches as far as the Clopton Bridge into Stratford and encompasses the vibrant communities of Tiddington and suburban Stratford south of the river. Built in 1839, this architectural gem played a pivotal role in transforming Alveston from its humble rural origins to an elegant village. However, its history dates back much further than its construction. The boundaries of this ancient parish were established way back in 983 AD, with remnants of the Old Church's chancel still standing proudly to the north down Mill Lane after undergoing recent restoration. While not conventionally beautiful, St James church exudes an undeniable sense of grandeur and magnificence. In 1879, additions such as the Chancel, vestry, and Lady Chapel were incorporated into its structure. Further embellishments followed during Canon Llewellyn's long incumbency in the early years of the 20th century when intricate decorations adorned both interior and exterior spaces. Transporting us back to circa 1960s through Mirrorpix's lens captures a moment frozen in time—a testament to both religious devotion and architectural prowess. This print encapsulates not only a physical structure but also centuries' worth of stories woven within its walls—stories that continue to resonate with those who visit or call this remarkable place their spiritual home.
