St James's Church, Anglican church in Paddington, England
The church features Gothic architecture with yellow brick walls, inlaid marble decorations, and stained glass windows throughout its interior space.
Built between 1841 and 1843, the church underwent major reconstruction by architect George Edmund Street in the late 19th century due to growing congregation numbers.
The circular plaque at the east end commemorates the 1884 marriage of Oscar Wilde to Constance Lloyd, marking a connection to literary history.
The church remains open from 9 AM until 7:15 PM on weekdays, offering regular services including High Mass on Sundays at 10:30 AM.
The Te Deum window, installed after World War II damage, incorporates local scenes and references to Alexander Fleming and Robert Baden Powell.
