This church is just behind the Bank of England and was designed by Christopher Wren and built in 1683-92 after the Great Fire, on the site of a previous church, first mentioned in 1183.

The furnishings are particularly fine, with magnificent woodwork - particularly the Wren chancel screen - one of only two by Wren in the City. The font has some claim to be by Grinling Gibbons and there is a fine marble bust by Joseph Nollekens of 1795.
