Approximate Date

Approximate Date:

It is often extremely difficult to determine a precise date of construction for a church as many have been extensively altered over time. Church Heritage Cymru therefore shows a date range within which a church is believed to have been constructed. The dates are as follows: Early Medieval (pre 1066), Medieval (post 1066 to 1540), Post Medieval (1540 to 1837), Victorian/Pre WWI (1837 to 1914) and Modern (post 1914).

Summary Description

This is a very brief summary of the church's main features. More  detailed nformation can be found in the other fields and pages (tabs) in this database.

The church of St James is located in the coastal village of Manorbier in South Pembrokeshire. It sits within its ancient circular churchyard on a steep slope overlooking the sea to the west and Manorbier castle to the north. The castle was the birthplace of Gerald of Wales (Giraldus Cambrensis) and the church still houses an effigy of a de Barri (Gerald’s family name). It had an early connection with the nearby Benedictine Monkton Priory (now the Church of Saints Nicholas & John) who supplied its first rector, Prior Richard, in 1251. The church consists of a south porch, nave, aisles, transepts, chancel and north tower. It is remarkable for having barrel vaulting throughout most of the interior. The oldest part is the 12C nave, which was barrel-vaulted and lengthened in the 13C. The mis-aligned chancel was rebuilt and the transepts added in the 14C. The narrow north transept was lengthened and given a barrel vault with a wide squint to the south in the 14C. The aisles were both added in the 15C. The north aisle is unusual in that it is almost the same size as the nave and now houses the 15C rood loft, moved there in the 19C. The porch with its painted ceiling was added in the late 15C. The chancel was given an arch-braced roof in the 19C and the north transept converted to a chapel in the 20C. St James is mostly built from local limestone rubble masonry with some local sandstone in the tower and slate roofs with parapets. Several blocked doorways on the exterior of the building indicate the ground level has risen considerably since the medieval period, possibly by 1 or 2 metres. Further up the hill to the south of the church on the site of Church Hill Cottage is structural evidence of perhaps 5 buildings. It is thought these buildings are (or incorporate remains of) a grange established after Sir John de Barri granted the church to the Priory of Monkton in 1301. Internally, Church Hill Cottage has a barrel-vaulted ceiling, possibly contemporary with the church and was used as a school in the 19C. The Ordnance Survey map of 1860 clearly shows a school and vicarage on the site. Main references: Pevsner Buildings of Wales - Pembrokeshire and the list descriptions at the bottom of this page.

Location and Setting

This describes how the church relates to its immediate and wider environment, sometimes called its setting. It describes how the church contributes to its landscape or townscape and how these things collectively contribute to the character of the area.

The Church of St James is located in the coastal village of Manorbier, just off the A4139 which links the larger towns of Pembroke to the west and Tenby to the east. It is approached from the north-east along the B4585, the main route through the village. The majority of the buildings here appear to date from the 18th or 19th century and consist mainly of two and three storey rendered domestic dwellings interspaced with one or two commercial and retail properties. Modern 20th century housing has grown up behind the older properties on the outskirts of the village. The oldest buildings are the medieval castle and church (and its former grange buildings), which face each other across a small valley that gently slopes down to the sea in the southern part of the village.

The village falls within the Manorbier/Freshwater East Conservation Area which is characterised by a large tract of rolling lowland with an indented rocky cliff coastline, steep slopes, small sheltered coves and coastal grassland above. The surrounding land is mainly agricultural with smalll and medium-sized fields with traditional hedgerows, interspersed with villages, hamlets and scattered farmsteads.

The present day landscape is one almost wholly shaped by medieval territorial organisation, settlements and land use, very different from that encountered in north and west Pembrokeshire. This is typified by the medieval open field system which has survived remarkably well in the area. The strip fields which lie either side of the Ridgeway between nearby Lamphey and to the south of St Florence are a good example. Manorbier itself is a Registered Landscape of Special Historic Interest in Wales and in addition to the medieval church and castle, has a Neolithic chambered tomb on the nearby coast path known as the King’s Quoit.

Description of Archaeology and History

A description of the history and archaeology of the church and its site.

The wider area has been settled since prehistoric times as evidenced by the Neolithic chambered tomb (known as the King’s Quoit) on the nearby coast path, although the present day landscape is one almost wholly shaped by medieval territorial organisation, settlements and land use.

The Church of St James at Manorbier dates from the C12. Gerald of Wales (Giraldus Cambrensis), of the de Barri family of nearby Manorbier Castle, recounts how he took refuge there in 1153. The earliest surviving part of the building is the nave from this period. The Church had an early connection with the Benedictines of Monkton, and a Prior of Monkton, Master Richard, was its first recorded Rector in 1251. The original building was greatly enlarged during the next hundred years with a rebuilt chancel and transepts and a new tower, aisles and porch. The north aisle is almost equal in height and width to the nave and is virtually a second nave and may have functioned as the Parish Church while the main nave and the chancel were still in exclusive conventual use. Mediaeval ceiling paintings survive in the porch.

In 1301 Sir John de Barri granted the church to Monkton Priory. However, as an alien house, Monkton lost the advowson and the Rectorial land and tithes during the Hundred Years War with France. With the Dissolution the whole church became the Parish Church in Manorbier. It is not clear at what date the north wall of the nave was pierced to form an arcade of low arches similar to, but not aligned with, those formed in the south wall when the south aisle was added. The Rood figures were removed in 1707 and replaced by the Royal Arms of King William, painted on boards. These are now repositioned on the north wall, to which they were moved during the major restoration by Frederick Wehnert in 1865-8. The restoration also saw the Rood Loft moved to the north aisle and a large chancel arch formed in place of the low, narrow Norman one. Perpendicular tracery was removed from the east window in favour of the trefoil-headed lancets, more in keeping with Victorian preference. The church interior was replastered throughout and the vaults in the tower were pierced in 1920 for the re-installation of a bell.

Exterior Description

A description of the exterior of the church and the main features of the churchyard.

The Church of St James consists of a nave with adjacent north and south aisles, north & south transcepts, misaligned chancel and south porch. The tower and vestry are attached to the north wall of the chancel. The whole presents an irregular grouping dominated by the two masses of the tower and the north aisle linked by the stepping-down projection of the north transept and the chapel. Generally, built from local limestone rubble masonry with some local sandstone, as in the tower. Slate roofs with gable parapets and finial crosses with a bellcote at the east end of the north aisle. Slender tower of local type, with four storeys and crenellated parapet on corbels, but without the usual stair turret. Three large belfry lights with stone louvres to north (towards village), single lights to the east and west and none towards the south Lancet at ground storey facing north. A blocked west door in the nave nave with equilateral arch formed to two large curved stones. The blocked door of the north aisle also an equilateral arch but formed of voussoirs. The very low height of these archways shows the outside ground level has risen considerably (1-2 m).

Interior Description

This section gives a general description of the interior of the church. Further details of any important internal fixtures and fittings will be listed below.

Nave approximately 12.5 m by 5.5 m wide with a high pointed vault. Although pointed its Norman character is indicated by a surviving high-level round-headed window in the S side, partly blocked by an arch of the subsequently formed S arcade. The original chancel arch was low and narrow and the present arch, though larger, imitates the squat, low-springing form of the nave arcades. Above it, seen from the nave, are several Rood-Loft corbels and a high level ladder hook.

Chancel 5.5 m by 5 m, built c.1250 on older foundations. Its axis is markedly inclined to the right relative to the nave (compare Castlemartin Church). A C14 de Barri effigy repositioned on the N side. Door to adjacent vestry. Arch to tower. A blocked Priest?s door in the S wall. C19 sedilia. E window of 3 lancets. The N and S transepts added c.1250. The S Transept now contains the organ. The N transept has a high level window in the gable, now converted to 2 lights. The Tower was added in the angel between the N transept and the chancel. It is small in area, 4.6 m square internally, and may not originally have been intended to be so high. Its entrance is by a loft-level doorway in the N transept.

The N aisle is 18.5 m by 4.5 m. The external doorway in the N wall is blocked. A door seen internally in the N wall leads to stairs in the wall thickness leading to the resited Rood-Loft and indirectly to the tower. A carved label mould terminal of this doorway is of a style dated to the C13. There are traces of red and blue paint on the Rood-Loft timbers.The chantry chapel, which is an extension of the N transept, originally housed the de Barri effigy which is taken to be John de Barri, d.1324. This chapel is unusually roofed with vaulting on close set thick transverse ribs. In 1960 this part was formed into a Memorial Chapel with a new timber screen.

S aisle 16 m by 2 m, also vaulted but beneath a lean-to roof. A wide squint between the S transept and the nave enables the altar to be seen from the S entrance door. Water-stoup recess beside porch door. Porch at S with a high vault, with surviving mediaeval paintings in floral patterns within panels. The church has 2 fonts, one small and octagonal, on a modern base. The other a font of Norman type, presently in use. This has been re-tooled overall in modern times. At rear of nave are 2 blocks of pews probably predating the re-pewing of c.1865. In the N aisle is a Celtic-cross war memorial.

Ecological Designations

Missing help text - to be added by an administrator

The everyday wildlife of burial grounds means much to those who visit and cherish them but many burial grounds are so rich in wildlife that they should be designated and specially protected. Few have the legal protection of a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) or, in the case of local authority owned cemeteries, Local Nature Reserve. This makes it even more important that they are cared for and protected by the people looking after them.

Many have a non-statutory designation as a recognition of their importance. These non-statutory designations have a variety of names in different regions including Local Wildlife Site, County Wildlife Site, Site of Importance for Nature Conservation or Site of Nature Conservation Importance (Local Wildlife Site is the most common name). Their selection is based on records of the most important, distinctive and threatened species and habitats within a national, regional and local context. This makes them some of our most valuable wildlife areas.

For example, many burial grounds which are designated as Local Wildlife Sites contain species-rich meadow, rich in wildflowers, native grasses and grassland fungi managed by only occasional mowing plus raking. When this is the case, many animals may be present too, insects, birds, amphibians, reptiles and mammals. This type of grassland was once widespread and has been almost entirely lost from the UK with approximately 3% remaining, so burial grounds with species-rich meadow managed in this way are extremely important for wildlife.

These designations should be considered when planning management or change.

If you think that this or any other burial ground should be designated please contact Caring for God’s Acre (info@cfga.org.uk) to discuss. Many eligible sites have not yet received a designation and can be surveyed and then submitted for consideration.

Ancient, Veteran & Notable Trees

Missing help text - to be added by an administrator

Churchyards are home to fantastic trees, in particular ancient and veteran trees which can be the oldest indication of a sacred space and be features of extraordinary individuality. The UK holds a globally important population of ancient and veteran yew trees of which three-quarters are found in the churchyards of England and Wales.

There are more than 1,000 ancient and veteran yews aged at least 500 years in these churchyards.

To put this in context, the only other part of western Europe with a known significant yew population is Normandy in northern France, where more than 100 ancient or veteran churchyard yews have been recorded.

Burial grounds may contain veteran and ancient trees of other species such as sweet chestnut or small-leaved lime which, whilst maybe not so old as the yews, are still important for wildlife and may be home to many other species.

Specialist advice is needed when managing these wonderful trees. For more information or to seek advice please contact Caring for God’s Acre, The Ancient Yew Group and The Woodland Trust.

If you know of an ancient or veteran tree in a burial ground that is not listed here please contact Caring for God’s Acre.

There are currently no Ancient, Veteran or Notable trees connected to this Parish Church

Significance

Setting Significance Level:

Signifiance levels are set at high, medium and low.

High
Setting Significance Description:

Significance defines what is special about a church. This could be architectural, archaeological, historical or liturgical. Here, it describes the relationship of the church to its surrounding area and helps place it within its wider landscape context.

The surrounding area has been settled since pre-historic times, although the present day landscape is one almost wholly shaped by medieval territorial organisation, settlements and land use. The medieval church of St James is located within the Manorbier/Freshwater East Conservation Area and the wider Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. It sits within its ancient circular churchyard in a prominent position on one side of a shallow valley leading down towards the sea in the village of Manorbier. The Castle is situated on the opposite valley slope. St James has group value with the medieval Church Hill Cottage and the adjoining ruins of a previous monastic grange, both of which are also listed.
Fabric Significance Level:

Signifiance levels are set at high, medium and low.

High
Fabric Significance Description:

Significance defines what is special about a church. This could be architectural, archaeological, historical or liturgical. Here, it describes the significance of the historic building fabric of the church.

The grade I listed Church of St James at Manorbier dates from the 12th century and today consists of a nave with adjacent north and south aisles, north & south transcepts, misaligned chancel, south porch, tower and vestry. Most of the masonry is of local limestone rubble with some local sandstone (the tower) and topped by slate roofs. It was originally built by the de Barri family of Manorbier Castle, where the famous theologian and historian, Gerald of Wales was born. It was given to the nearby Benedictine monastery at Monkton in 1301, later becoming the local parish church after the dissolution of the monasteries during the reign of Henry VIII. St James represents one of the most interesting medieval churches in south-west Wales.
Interior Significance Level:

Signifiance levels are set at high, medium and low.

High
Interior Significance Description:

Significance defines what is special about a church. This could be architectural, archaeological, historical or liturgical. Here, it describes the historic significance of the interior of the church.

Internally, the Norman origins of the church can be seen by a high level round-headed window in the south side of the nave, partly blocked by a later south arcade arch. It underwent several restorations during the 19th century during which time the 15th century rood loft was moved to the north aisle and the 14th century effigy of John de Barri of Manorbier Castle was relocated to the Chancel. Early 20th century stained glass windows are by Joseph Bell & Son, Powell & Sons and C E Kemp & Co. Unusually, much of the church is vaulted in stone with a wooden barrel vault in the chancel. In common with many Pembrokeshire churches, St James has a wide squint between the chancel and the south transept.
Community Significance Level:

Signifiance levels are set at high, medium and low.

Moderate
Community Significance Description:

Significance defines what is special about a church. This could be architectural, archaeological, historical or liturgical. Here, it describes the relationship between the church and its community. 

St James' Church is situated some distance from the village of Manorbier and is thus somewhat apart form the main community today. It had close links with the de Barri family of Manorbier castle during the medieval period and an effigy of a family member still exists in the church today. It is thought the village school was adjacent to the church in the 19th century. It is open for visitors during the summer months and holds regular services throughout the year.

Species Summary

Missing help text - to be added by an administrator

All of the species listed below have been recorded in close proximity to the Parish Church . A few species which are particularly threatened and affected by disturbance may not be listed here because their exact location cannot be shared.

NOTE: Be aware that this dataset is growing, and the species totals may change once the National Biodiversity Network has added further records. Species may be present but not recorded and still await discovery.

No species data found for this record

Caring for God’s Acre is a conservation charity working to support groups and individuals to investigate, care for, and enjoy the wildlife and heritage treasures found within churchyards and other burial grounds. Look on their website for information and advice and please contact their staff directly. They can help you manage this churchyard for people and wildlife.

To learn more about all of the species recorded against this church, go to the Burial Ground Portal within the NBN Atlas. You can check the spread of records through the years, discovering what has been recorded and when, plus what discoveries might remain to be uncovered.

"Seek Advice" Species

Missing help text - to be added by an administrator

If any of the following species have been seen close to the Parish Church, it is important to seek advice from an expert. You will need to know if they are present now, and to follow expert recommendations when planning works. All of these species have specific legal protection as a recognition of their rarity. All of them are rare or becoming increasingly endangered, so it is important to ensure that management and other works do not adversely affect them. In addition, there may be things you can do to help these special species. N.B. Swift and House Martin do not have specific legal protection but are included, as roof repair works often impact breeding swifts and house martins which is against the law.

This is not a complete list of protected species, there are many more, but these are ones that are more likely to be found. All wild birds, their nests and eggs are also protected by law, as are all bats and veteran trees. In a few cases, species are considered particularly prone to disturbance or destruction by people, so the exact location of where they were recorded is not publicly available but can be requested. These ‘blurred’ records are included here, and the accuracy is to 1km. This means that the species has been recorded in close proximity to the Parish Church, or a maximum of 1km away from it. As these ‘blurred’ species are quite mobile, there is a strong likelihood that they can occur close to the Parish Church. To learn about these special species, use the link provided for each species in the table below

One important species which is not included here is the Peregrine Falcon. This is protected and advice should be sought if peregrines are nesting on a church or cathedral. Peregrine records are ‘blurred’ to 10km, hence the decision not to include records here. Remember too that species not seriously threatened nationally may still be at risk in your region and be sensitive to works. You should check with local experts about this. You may also need to seek advice about invasive species, such as Japanese knotweed and aquatics colonising streams or pools, which can spread in churchyards.

N.B. If a species is not recorded this does not indicate absence. It is always good practice to survey.

No species data found for this record

Caring for God’s Acre can help and support you in looking after the biodiversity present in this special place. If you know that any of these species occur close to the Parish Church and are not recorded here, please contact Caring for God’s Acre with details (info@cfga.org.uk).

To find out more about these and other species recorded against this Parish Church, go to the Burial Ground Portal within the NBN Atlas.
