St James' Church, Birkenhead, Grade II listed Gothic Revival church in Birkenhead, England

St James' Church presents stone walls, Welsh slate roofing, and a northwest tower with a spire situated at Hoylake Road and Laird Street intersection.

The construction of this ecclesiastical building started in 1845 under C. E. Lang's design and reached completion in 1858 through Walter Scott's work.

The interior displays a marble font, an octagonal stone pulpit, and stained glass windows from 1913 depicting Christ with Saints James and John.

Sunday services take place at 10:30 AM, alternating between Morning Worship and Holy Communion, with a public car park available on Sumner Road.

The church features five-bay arcades supported by cylindrical columns with ring moulded and foliated capitals, plus a three-manual pipe organ from 1907.
