This church on Euston Road, across from the railway station, is the most Greek of all the neo-classical churches in the West End, having been designed after the temple of the Erectheum on the Acropolis in Athens. Architect William Inwood’s son, Henry, actually made a trip to Greece to make drawings used in the church’s plans. The tower, 156-feet high, is modelled after the Temple of the Winds at Athens. At the east end are projecting porticos with large female figures supporting the entablature, also in imitation of the Erectheum. These porticos are entrances to the crypt. The portico at the west end facing the street is graced by six Ionic columns, behind which are the three entrance doors. St Pancras (which is the second church by this name in the area) was consecrated in 1822.
