I was joking and teasing Piers a bit :-)

Anyhow, established spelling traditions seem to be loosening. My reference in 
the matter is the following, and has been for decades for many:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_James%27s_Park 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_James's_Park>

Also see,

In MLA style, proper nouns ending in s that are singular follow the general 
rule and add ’s :

Athens’s history
Diogenes’s philosophy
Alexandre Dumas’s novels
Some styles may allow you to add only an apostrophe: Athens’ history, Diogenes’ 
philosophy, Dumas’ novels.
