St James' Church from the west

The west front of the church, restored in 1705, shows the domestic-style windows which light the nave and gallery. The crude buttresses on the north side had to be added to support the increased outward thrust from the west gallery which was added as part of the restoration (no buttress was needed on the south side as the entrance porch served that purpose).
