Free FreeThe City Churches, so severely damaged by the Great Fire, and so triumphantly and confidently rebuilt by Wren and others, mark the anniversary of the start of the Fire with a special service of commemoration and thanksgiving, to which all are welcome.
Beginning at the Wren church of St Mary-at-Hill with a short commemoration service, the clergy, guests and congregation will process up Lovat Lane, along Eastcheap, and down Pudding Lane, where the procession will pause at the site of Farriner’s Bakery where the fire started.
The procession will continue to the Monument itself, and then onto the church of St Magnus the Martyr, one of the first to be destroyed in the Great Fire. There, a short service of thanksgiving for the rebuilding of the City and its churches will conclude the event.
Route:
St Mary-at-Hill, EC3R 8EE > Eastcheap > Pudding Lane > The Monument > St Magnus the Martyr, EC3R 6DN
