The Old St James's Church is a former church in the village of Upton, Somerset, England, of which only the tower remains, overlooking Wimbleball Lake. The tower is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building,[1] and is in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.[2] The church was declared redundant on 4 November 1971, and was vested in the Trust on 24 May 1973.[3]
The only parts of the 14th-century church which remain are from the lowest courses of the nave and chancel, and the tower,[2] which has three stages and is unbuttressed.[1]
The current parish church of St James was built in 1870 to replace this church.[4]
