This photograph, taken by S O Gorse around 1920-1940, captures the interior beauty of the church before it was sadly destroyed during the Blitz of 1940. The church, which dates back to the 11th century, was rebuilt in 1671-8 following the Great Fire of London, under the designs of Sir Christopher Wren. The interior depicted in this image is a testament to the intricate craftsmanship and architectural brilliance of that time. The high ceilings, ornate columns, and intricate stonework create a sense of grandeur and awe.
