Morpeth St James the Great, Northumberland

            A very fine example of 19th century Norman revival architecture. St James the Great was built between 1844 and 1846 for the Hon. and Rev. Francis Richard Grey (1813-1890), Rector of Morpeth. It was designed by Benjamin Ferrey (1810-1880) who had studied under Augustus Charles Pugin, alongside his son, Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin. Its interior is said to have been inspired by Monreal Cathedral, Sicily, where Francis Grey and Lady Elizabeth Grey had spent part of their 1840 honeymoon touring Italy. Rector Grey's incumbency was one of the longest in the parish's history and lasted almost half a century (1842-1890). St James's opened on 15th October 1846 and is now Grade II* listed by Historic England.
