St. James the Great, Longdon

St. James the Great, Longdon St. James' church is a medieval Church of England building and the only place of worship in Longdon, We look forward to welcoming you.

James the Great church has existed since about 1150AD, possibly replacing an earlier Saxon building. It is on the A51 road, an ancient coaching route between Lichfield and Chester. The parish covers Longdon, Longdon Green and Upper Longdon along with parts of Gentleshaw and is in the diocese of Lichfield, being only a few miles from the Cathedral. The building is usually open in daylight hours and time spent in the tranquility of this ancient place is very rewarding.
