St James's Church, Anglican church in Clerkenwell, England

The brick building with Portland stone features stands elevated above Clerkenwell Green, displaying a distinctive tower and Georgian architectural elements.

The current structure, designed by architect James Carr, replaced a 12th-century church in 1792 at a construction cost of nearly 12,000 pounds.

The church interior contains a notable George Pike England organ from 1790, complemented by stained glass windows created by Heaton, Butler and Bayne.

The entrance on Clerkenwell Close requires visitors to climb steps, while the surrounding garden provides seating areas under mature trees.

The crypt beneath the church serves multiple functions, hosting exhibitions, film productions, and community events within its vaulted brick ceiling space.
