About St. James Church
St. James Church in Goose Creek, South Carolina is a historic Anglican parish established in 1706 as part of the Church of England's expansion in the colonial territory. The existing brick church, constructed beginning around 1713, stands as a remarkable example of 18th-century ecclesiastical architecture, featuring stucco-covered walls, a distinctive jerkinhead roof, and ornate interior details including box pews, a curved pulpit, and a baroque-painted plaster reredos. The church survived the Revolutionary War through the presence of the royal coat of arms above its pulpit. Today, this small but architecturally significant one-story structure—measuring 50 feet long and 40 feet wide—welcomes visitors to experience its historical and spiritual heritage.
