Standing almost eight hundred feet up at the head of the Longdendale Valley, with fewer than forty people living within a four mile radius this must be one of the most desolate chapels in the country. It may already be well over 500 years old, since 1487 is usually given as its foundation date. Sir Edmund Shaa, Lord Mayor of London, left money in that year to pay for a priest "in a chapel that I have made in Longdendale" who would sing his Mass and say divine service for ever more

Local rumour suggests that the fifteenth century building - probably wooden - was at Robin-i-Meers, about three quarters of a mile further up the valley by the River Etherow; the dedication seems to have changed from the Blessed Virgin to St. James some time later, which might imply a new building. There are no graves before mid-eighteenth century in the present graveyard.
Some of the railway navvies who died during the construction of the Woodhead tunnel are buried in St James' churchyard but the field behind the church has been left bare. For more than 100 years there have been rumours that some of the tunnel workers and their families – who were Roman Catholic and were not allowed to be buried in an Anglican churchyard – were buried behind St James in the ‘unconsecreted ground.’ Other rumours suggest the field was used to bury victims of cholera, which swept through the Saltersbrook site.
