Church of St James, Twickenham, Roman Catholic church in Twickenham, England
The church building at 61 Pope's Grove displays Gothic Revival architecture with London stock brick walls and decorative ceiling carvings throughout its interior.
Cardinal Henry Edward Manning opened the Church of St James in 1885, followed by its consecration in 1887 as a central place of worship.
The side altar features artwork by Vicente de Arroyabe and includes a reproduction of Raphael's Madonna and Child donated at the start of the 20th century.
The parish operates St James's Primary School and St Richard Reynolds Catholic Community College, providing education to local children since 1893.
Portuguese King Manuel II, living in exile at nearby Fulwell Park, regularly attended mass here and contributed windows commemorating various saints.
