Church of St James the Great, Haydock, Anglican parish church in Haydock, England

The Church of St James the Great is located on Church Road and features brick walls with timber framing built on a sandstone base. The interior is arranged for regular worship services and community gatherings.

The building was constructed in 1866 by George Harris of St Helens and was expanded in 1891 to serve the growing population of Haydock. This enlargement reflects the area's development during that period.

The church serves the local community as a center for Anglican worship and religious gatherings throughout the year. Visitors can observe how the space brings people together for regular services and important life celebrations.

Services take place on Sundays and weekdays, offering different options for visiting at various times. The location near a local Tesco store can help with finding the building and navigating the area.

The interior features dark-stained oak woodwork and a hanging rood from 1952 designed by a Romanian artist. This artwork adds a distinctive artistic element to the worship space.
