  • The Memorial Book

    The Memorial Book was set up in 2004 to create a permanent record  of the passing of a loved one. It is opened at the appropriate pages throughout the year when the church is in use (usually Sunday). The people whose names are recorded in the book are remembered during our prayers each week and at the All Souls Service on the Sunday nearest to 2nd November each year. If you would like to have the name of a loved one entered in the book, please download and complete a Memorial Book Request form (below).  We do ask for a small donation (£5.  Cheques payable to: St Philip and St James PCC).

Church Location

How to find St. Philip and St. James Church, Kimblesworth

The church is located at Oak Crescent, Kimblesworth and its west wall faces along the length of Church View.  The postcode for Church View is DH2 3QE.  More detailed directions are give below the map.

If you're coming from the A167 roundabout by the Red Lion Pub, take the B6312 towards Sacristion.  When the road levels out and bends to the right (hairdresser's shop on the corner), look out for a turning to the left.  Having taken this turning, after a little way, there are a couple of shops on the left.  Take the first turning on the left after these, follow the road round; after roughly sixty yards, the road bears right.  Carry on a little further and the Church is on the left.

 

If you are heading down the B6312 from Sacriston, look out for the school and community centre on the left.  Around 150 yards beyond these is the crucial turning - this time to the right.  Having taken this turning, after a little way, there are a couple of shops on the left.  Take the first turning on the left after these, follow the road round; after roughly sixty yards, the road bears right.  Carry on a little further and the Church is on the left.
