St Magnus the Martyr

The London Undone ‘City of London Churches’ podcast series:
A journey around the magnificent and many churches of the City of London.
Learn about their histories, architecture, associations, features and their spiritual lives today.

3. Listen to the sounds and the special ceremonies at St Magnus the Martyr. Find out why the congregation takes its prayers to London Bridge. With thanks to Brian Evans from the Friends of the City Churches, Fr Philip Warner, Alex Rayner and Tyler Hills from St Magnus.

City Temple

City Temple: In the City but not 'of' the City. This is a non-conformist church with a poly-cultural congregation and behind the Victorian facade is a post-war building full of surprises.

Churches

St Stephen Wallbrook

This is said to be the most perfectly proportioned building in the world. It is also where Samaritans began its life and where you can sing to your hearts content every week.

Churches

St Katharine Cree

St Katharine Cree was built to keep the riff raff out of the nearby Priory. It pre-dates the Great Fire of London. Every year a sermon is preached from here entitled 'In the Lion's Den'. And most movingly, it is the church where people who have a connection to the sinking of the Lancastria (1940) remember this tragedy. All of this, and more, is shared in this podcast - the 30th in the series.

St Giles Cripplegate

In the middle of the brutalist Barbican stands the medieval church of St Giles Cripplegate with some prominent and some touchingly simple memorials to many famous men, and one intriguing woman.

Churches

St Clement Eastcheap

The smallest and least obvious of all City of London churches, St Clement Eastcheap is the church that features in the nursery rhyme 'Oranges and Lemons'. Today it's an office!

Churches

St Nicholas Cole Abbey

Fish, coffee and smudgy windows all appear in this beautifully restored Christopher Wren church which is also very well attended by the young city workforce.
