Super friendly people who work here and very knowledgeable. The kind of place you’re feel comfortable regardless of being religious or not.

The place its self has changed so much over the years and has a rich history. As seen in my pictures.

It’s absolutely worth visiting if you’re in the area and has some famous people who were buried there at one point but likely not any more.

Thanks for your help 🙂

People seem to think it’s hard to find, it’s really not! Just go to the Barbican arts centre and you can see it across the pond from there. It’s also really fun to get to via the Barbican as you take in the stunning...

Lovely. My best friend penny sings here on a Sunday morning. There's a book fayre in the church on Sundays after mass which is always goid for a cheap read and huge selection of books and a decent selection of dvd. Most items cost 2 to 3 pounds each maybe more depending on size if the book. The rectory attached to the church is very pleasant and have been welcomed here by the vicar with a glass of wine and some nibbles....all free and very congenial bunch of worshippers. Great place in the centre of our favourite brutalist architecture in london - the barbican. That's another review all...

The church itself is rather shabby. Just a protestant prayer house, mostly devoid of beauty. But it is worth visiting for one thing - the magnificent stained glass with various saints. It contains a beautiful image of St Anselm of Canterbury wearing green vestments and a hare by his feet. I love St Anselm and this is one of the most charming images of this Doctor of the Church I have seen. So, visit the church and enjoy the magnificent stained glass window.
