The Church
Grounds - Inside The
Church
The first sight of our church is this,
as you walk down the driveway
This is the back of the church, seen
from the lawn. The stone in the wall reads "To The Glory of God AD 1965".
The buildings for the earlier churches were elsewhere within
the grounds
The graveyard to one side and
behind the church contains graves dating back to
1836

The carving on this lectern is one
of three Maltese Crosses, the emblem of St. John, which decorate the
church

another church, and is older than Grove Parish
Church
The most prominent of the stained
glass windows is this depiction of St. James, after whom the first church
on the site took its name
All the vicars at the two churches
are listed on this board
