The name of this church was originally ‘In-the-Wall’, as the site was a narrow strip of land adjoining the old wall and partly resting on one of the bastions. It is now at the east end of the street called London Wall, where it crosses Old Broad Street. It survived the Great Fire, but was pulled down and rebuilt in 1765-67 by George Dance the Younger. Badly damaged in World War II, it was abandoned for some twenty years, but was restored by David Nye and reconsecrated in 1962. It presently is the headquarters of the Council for Places of Worship, which concerns itself with the preservation of churches throughout England. The former parish is served by St. Botolph’s, Bishopsgate.
