St James' Church, Cooling

St James' Church is a redundant Anglican church in the village of Cooling, Kent, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. The church stands in the Hoo peninsula, north of Rochester, with only marshland to the north between it and the River Thames.〔
==History==

The church originates from the 13th century, with its building continuing into the following century. The upper part of the tower was added later, and was completed by about 1400. The church was restored in the 19th century, when a vestry was added, and the porch was rebuilt. It was declared redundant on 19 November 1976 and vested in the Churches Conservation Trust on 31 May 1978. It is now cared for by a group known as the Friends of St James' Church. The church is open daily to visitors.〔
The churchyard provided the inspiration for the opening chapter of Charles Dickens' book ''Great Expectations'', in which the hero of the story, Pip, meets the convict, Magwitch.〔 In 2005 the musician Jools Holland married the sculptor Christabel McEwan in the church.
