The History of St James's Clergy

When the church was built, the Revd Fitzroy John Fitz Wygram was appointed its first vicar and the building was consecrated in honour of St James on December 11th, 1863, by Bishop Tait, Bishop of London. Including the Revd Fitz Wygram there have been nine previous vicars at St James's Church from its consecration until 8th November 2016.

Curates are invested with the care of souls in a parish and there have been many serving at St James's.
 St James's Curates through the years shows what happened from when records began up until 2017. The Annual Parochial Church Meeting Reports show the annual reports from most teams and groups since then. (Scroll down the document of the year you are interested in to find the report you want) 
The Revd Jacky Cammidge became our curate on Sunday July 4th, 2015. After four years as a curate, she was fully qualified so became our Associate Priest.

 The History of St James's Parochial Church Council (PCC)

The administrative committee of an Anglican parish church was called a Vestry from the 16th until the 20th century, when it became the Parochial Church Council. Both the secular and spiritual affairs of New Hampton, as Hampton Hill was first known, were originally overseen by the Hampton Vestry. 
The church administration affects what goes on in St James's Church and how it is run and organised.

The PCC through the years shows what happened from when records began up until 2016. The Annual Parochial Church Meeting Reports show the annual reports from most teams and groups since then. (Scroll down the document of the year you are interested in to find the report you want) 

St James’s Properties Committee is a report on the first forty years since its establishment in 1960/61.
