St James's Church, Manorbier | Wales Photo Spot
Share this Page
St James the Great Church is a historic church that sits photogenically on a steep slope overlooking the sea to the west and Manorbier castle to the north. The oldest part of the present building is the striking west tower, which dates to the middle of the 12th century. The nave may be 12th century as well, but the chancel is mostly 13th and 14th century, and the entire church was remodelled in the Victorian period. Restoration work during the Victorian and Edwardian periods brought St James church one of its great treasures; a series of excellent stained glass windows by some of the finest craftsmen of the time.
