St James’s Churchyard
WHAT THREE WORDS: pound.same.fears
The next Churchyard maintenance will be Saturday 9th May 2026 at 10am.
Huge thanks to everyone who came to help with Churchyard Maintenance today. I am overwhelmed by the number of people volunteering. Our next day will be on May 9th which is an extra slot as we work to clear the vegetation by the wall between the Middle and Lower Grounds.

THE LYTCH GATE
The original Lytch Gate was destroyed by a bomb in 1940.
The bomb destroyed some of the windows in the Church and damaged some of the nearby monuments.
Below are the names and Commonwealth War Graves of Sidney Holliday and Frederick Harris who both lost their lives in Bushey when the bomb exploded.
