Parish Church of St James, Trowbridge, Medieval church in Trowbridge, England.

The Parish Church of St James features Gothic architecture with a 160-foot spire, large windows, pinnacles, and battlements across its stone structure.

Founded in 1125, the church underwent substantial reconstruction around 1450, retaining only the original tower, spire, and chancel from earlier periods.

The church holds the tomb of renowned poet George Crabbe, who served as rector from 1814 to 1832, marking its connection to literature.

Sunday services take place at 10:45 AM, with Reverend Jake Eggertsen leading the congregation through traditional Church of England liturgies.

The church bell tower contains Wiltshire's only complete set of twelve bells, following restoration work completed in 1934.
