St James Parish Church is a Medieval Church set in the middle of
the village of Little Clacton, just over three and a half miles from
the seaside resort of Clacton-on-Sea, Essex.

This village has grown over
the years with the building of numerous residential properties and the population now stands
at 2,300. This also includes three mobile home sites. To some extent the building of the by-pass has split the village in half but the benefits to the centre of the village are enormous.

In the year 2000 grants were obtained for the purchase and
setting up of the Millennium Green.This has greatly added to the amenities of the village as we now have The Jubilee Oak Green opposite the Church, the main Village Green in the centre together with the Galloway Green and at the north end of the village,
a Sports Complex called The Parish Fields with a Youth and
Community Centre and all weather playing area. The village
is served by two public houses and various shops.

Every effort is being made to keep a green wedge between
the village and the suburban development of Clacton-on-Sea.
The village of Little Clacton is sign posted from the main A133
Colchester to Clacton Road.
