St James' Church, Grimsby

St James' Square. 
In the town centre, over Deansgate Bridge between Baxtergate and Bethlehem Street.

The parish church of St James is a spacious, cruciform church of the 13th century situated in the heart of Grimsby.  It is an impressive building with cathedral-like proportions.  A central tower from around 1365 carries a ring of ten bells.  The building's outstanding features are the combined clerestory and triforium, stretching almost completely round the interior, and its stained glass: there is a variety of notable stained glass, all from the 20th century. The Lady Chapel window illustrates the 'Magnificat' or 'Mary's Song' and both transepts have attractive glass depicting scenes of creation, celebration and angels. 

Open: Tuesday and Friday 9.30am - 12 noon
