Brief description

https://cadw.gov.wales/open-doors-st-jamess-llangua

"The earliest fabric of this building is 12th century, and includes the tub font and evidence of a Norman two-light window high in the gable of the west end. Most of the structure dates from the 14th-15th centuries, and this includes two magnificent wagon roofs over the chancel and nave. Stylistically, we believe the roof dates from 1475-1525, a great period of church reconstruction. New windows and a vestry were added by Thomas Nicholson of Hereford in 1889. During this time, the plaster was also scraped from the internal walls — as newspaper articles at the time confirm.

Between the nave and chancel, evidence for a rood screen and loft can be seen in an irregularity in the masonry, on which a characterful 16th-century statue of St James now stands."
