St James, Chignal St James

Click on the 'play' symbol in the second image to see all my photographs of this church as a slide show, then click on any image in the slideshow to see it large in a new page. Alternatively, if you don't have flash enabled, you can go straight to the set for this church on flickr. Closed, converted to a private house. Looking a perfectly lovely typical Essex church, and it must be very pleasant to live in, surrounded by flowerbeds. A public footpath still runs through the former churchyard, now the garden. But, of course, the church is lost to us forever. Hopefully it serves as a warning to any parish who might decide that declaring their church redundant to save running costs is a good idea. Simon Knott, April 2014
