St Mary Woolnoth was designed by Hawksmoor and built between 1716 and 1727. The interior is a square space carried by four groups of three large columns at the angles. The woodwork is largely original.
These sculptures, above the portico of the Bank of England, were the work of Sir Charles Wheeler - part of a set depicting 'Creators and Guardians of Wealth' - for Sir Herbert Baker's reconstruction of the Bank edifice between the World Wars.
