A 13th century church in a small Cotswold village, St James was extensively rebuilt in the late medieval period. The medieval wealth of the Cotswolds sprang from the wool trade, but by the 18th century industry had changed, and settlement patterns altered. Villagers moved from the hillside near the church down to the valley below, leaving St James' stranded.
