Geschiedenis
Saint James has its origins as the Mission Church of Saint John, founded in 1889. Services were held in an iron building in Alexandra Street and a Mission Hall in Talbot Road. Under Reverend Evan Jones, money was raised to construct a larger building for services. A site was purchased in West Ealing by the Bishop of London's Fund and a foundation stone laid in 1903. In 1905, a parish was specifically created for Saint James. The red brick building designed in a Gothic style by W. Pywell was finally completed in 1909.
From the mid-1960s, the numbers attending Saint James declined. In 1984, the church closed and services moved to Saint John. By 1990, the building had become derelict and was threatened with demolition. In reaction to this, a small group from Saint John's Church decided to try to save the church. After many years of building work, Saint James reopened in 2004.
