Looking down Old Fish Street Hill towards St Nicholas Cole Abbey.
A Marti Pellow morning in the City

ie Wet, Wet Wet. Our tour guide took us from Blackfriars Tube Station, up New Bridge Street, along Ludgate Hill, snaking up and down, and between the many passages and side streets to see as many churches as possible before finishing at Bank Tube Station. These guys know a vast amount about the "Square Mile"- many thanks.

Church of St Nicholas Cole Abbey

Grade I listed building, built by Sir Christopher Wren. LinkExternal link
St. Nicholas Cole Abbey is a church in the City of London located on what is now Queen Victoria Street. Recorded from the twelfth century, the church was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666 and rebuilt by the office of Sir Christopher Wren. The church suffered substantial bomb damage from German bombs during the London Blitz in the Second World War and was reconstructed by Arthur Bailey in 1961-2.
