St.James's Church, East Cowes.

It was rather dull when we walked past this church this morning. 
St James's was built by the architect John Nash. The foundation stone was laid by the twelve-year old Princess Victoria in 1831. It took two years to build and in 1833 the consecration service was attended by Princess Victoria and her mother the Duchess of Kent. It has been much enlarged since then. 
John Nash is buried in the Churchyard.
