St. Mary Aldermary

St Mary Aldermary is an Anglican church initially built by Sir Christopher Wren or his office, which was damaged in the Second World War. According to Pevsner, it is "the chief surviving monument of the 17th century Gothic revival in the City and -- with Warwick -- the most important late 17th century Gothic church in England." As of April, 2005, the priest in charge of the church was Father John Mothersole.

The latest interior restoration was finished in April 2005, with special attention paid to the plaster ceilings and the memorials on the north wall. A service was held on April 21, 2005 to celebrate the restoration, presided over by Richard Chartres, the Bishop of London.
