A street view of St. James Church at the market town of Louth. Lincolnshire Wolds. East England. UK.


One of the finest churches in all England. The parish church of St. James has the tallest spire (295 feet) of any medieval parish church in the country. It is featured in Sir Simon Jenkin's book, England's 1000 Best Churches. Begun in 1501 and completed in 1515 it cost £ to build. The (in)famous architect James Fowler, responsible for so many Lincolnshire church 'restorations' in the 19th century has his memorial in the nave.
