St Philip And St James Church, Leckhampton
St Philip & St James, Leckhampton is a parish in south Cheltenham, in the English county of Gloucestershire. Part of the Anglican Diocese of Gloucester, the church has been a centre for worship for more than 150 years and has a present congregational roll of over 200. History On 1 May 1840 the church of St Philip was consecrated as a daughter church of St Peter's and a priest in charge was approved. In 1869, St Philip's was granted separate parish status, and the first vicar was appointed in May that year. Ten years later, the church was found to be too small for the expanding parish and the present church of St Philip & St James was built around the existing one by partly rebuilding and extending it. This work took three years. In May 1882 the present building was consecrated by the Bishop of Gloucester, but the building had no spire - the proposed one had been found to be beyond the bearing capacity of the foundations. In 1903 the saddleback tower was built in place of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

He also described the story of the "Fair Maids of Foscott", believed to be conjoined twins from a local village now known as Foxcote. The north aisle was probably added in the 17th century. A major Victorian restoration was undertaken by George Gilbert Scott in the 1840s. In 2000 fu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
