Description
"This lovely church, once described by Sir Nikolaus Pevsner as ‘the finest Georgian church interior in the county’, was dedicated on St James’ day, 25th July 1753. It was built to a plan by Carlisle Spedding who was Sir James Lowther’s agent. The East end is an apse with Ionic pillasters. It houses a beautiful painting over the alter – ‘The Transfiguration’ by Guilio Proccacini (1548-1626)....." -
