I stumbled upon St Bartholomew The Great years ago just wandering around London, and only realised the significance must later when I read about it. Wonderful place!
This is so timely - we were just in St Bartholomew the Great over the weekend for an American carols service commemorating 300 year anniversary of Benjamin Franklin’s time there as a printing apprentice. We got there when it was already dark, but I definitely noted the atmospheric surroundings and wanted to return to explore in the daylight! So cool.

It feels a little bit tucked away so it’s easy to miss! Beautiful church with a fascinating history.

How wonderful that you were there for the 300th anniversary - sounds magical.
