Church of St James the Great, Paulerspury [Map]. Nick Faris. A brief visit yesterday to the Church of St James the great at Paulersbury Northants mainly to see the tomb and wooden effigies of Sir Lawrence de Paveley and his wife, from around 1340 to 1350, though sadly in not such great shape, some restoration work has been done to them and parts are missing, I am sure they were rather splendid in their day and still well worth viewing today.
