St James' Presbyterian Church of England, Bristol, Presbyterian church building in Bristol, England
St James' Presbyterian Church of England is a church building in The Haymarket district of Bristol, built in 1859 with a distinctive tower and Victorian architectural details. The structure has undergone significant transformation, with parts being adapted into office spaces and a chapel over the following centuries.
The church was built in 1859 during the Victorian period as a Presbyterian place of worship. It suffered severe damage during bombing raids in 1940 but was partially reconstructed afterward to continue serving its community.
In 1897, the church hosted a significant Presbyterian Church of England synod honoring Reverend William C Burns, the first missionary to China.
The site is best accessed on foot, as it is located in a central district easily reached by walking. Since the building is now partly used for offices or private purposes, it is worth checking beforehand if any interior viewing is possible.
The Welsh congregation used the reconstructed chapel space until 1988, when structural issues with the adjacent hall forced their relocation.
