I went to the village of Quedgeley which has been swallowed up into the suburbs of the City of Gloucester. Thousands of houses, supermarkets and industrial estates choke the area but there is one place they can't touch.
This is the Church of St. James, a medieval church from the 12th century. The actual site dates back to 1095. It is believed that King Henry XIII and Queen Anne Boleyn visited the church in the 1530's to take Mass.
