Dunwich St James church, Suffolk
The last of Dunwich's nine churches
(Photos/words © urban75, May 2007)

With its last remaining medieval church fast crumbling into the sea, Dunwich found itself without a parish church for 60 years until St James's church was built in 1830.

Originally designed in the classical style with a low tower and domed top, the Victorians couldn't resist fiddling about, adding a square tower and cladding the arched windows with flint fifteen years later.
