near to Leckhampton, Gloucestershire, Great Britain
Church of St Philip & St James, Leckhampton, Cheltenham
Viewed from the corner of Grafton Road and Gratton Road.
Curiously, when the foundation stone for the original church was laid in 1838, it was dedicated to St Peter, but thereafter it was known as St Philip. At the consecration in 1840, St James was added to the name. By the late 1870s, the small church was no longer able to accommodate all those wishing to worship. It was replaced by the present church which was built in 1879-1882.
