Church of St Vedast

Saint Vedast Foster Lane or Saint Vedast-alias-Foster, a church in Foster Lane, in the City of London, is dedicated to St. Vedast (Foster is an Anglicisation of his name), a French saint whose cult came to England through contacts with Augustinian clergy.
The original church of St Vedast was founded before 1308 and was extensively repaired in the seventeenth century.
Although the church was not completely destroyed in the Great Fire of 1666, it was restored by 1672 on parochial initiative. However, the church required substantial reconstruction by the office of Sir Christopher Wren between 1695 and 1701.
