Coundon St James was created in 1842 from chapelry in [[Auckland St Andrew, Durham]] Ancient Parish and includes: Windlestone and Westerton. The church was rebuilt in 1872 on a new site set further back from the road, and on a much grander in scale, the accommodation being increased to 530 seats. Again dedicated to St. James, it was designed by the leading architect Ewan Christian, and is an imposing stone building in the Early English style with lancet windows, large and with an apsidal east end Instead of being served by a perpetual curate, it now had its own vicar. Chapels were also built for the '''Wesleyan Methodists, Primitive Methodists and New Connexions'''. | Coundon St James was created in 1842 from chapelry in [[Auckland St Andrew, Durham]] Ancient Parish and includes: Windlestone and Westerton.
