Our Lady and St James Church is a Catholic parish church in Bangor, Gwynedd, Wales. The church structure was built from 1864 to 1865 and designed by Henry Kennedy. Originally, it was built as the Anglican Church of St James. However, in 1994 it closed, and was acquired by the local Catholic diocese in 1996. The local Catholic congregation moved from their old church, Our Lady's Church, to this one and they rededicated it to Our Lady and St James. Architecturally, the church is in the Gothic Revival style. A part of the church was designed by Henry Harold Hughes. It is located on the corner of Holyhead Road and Ffriddoedd Road to the southwest of the city centre. It is a Grade II listed building.
