Church of St James, Cameley, Medieval church in Cameley, England
The Church of St James features a fifteenth-century tower built from red Mendip sandstone, contrasting with the blue lias limestone walls of the structure.
The church dates back to 1101 and contains wall paintings from the twelfth to seventeenth centuries, including representations of a jester and royal arms.
Medieval benches, Georgian pews, and an early seventeenth-century pulpit demonstrate the evolution of ecclesiastical design through different periods.
The building accommodates 60 to 80 people for events but lacks modern utilities such as running water, and access requires navigating three deep steps.
A resident bee colony inhabits the church structure, adding a natural element to this Grade I listed building in Somerset.
