St Giles Cripplegate, Fore Street, London

A view looking north-west across a bomb damaged landscape towards St Giles Cripplegate Church in the distance with St Mary Aldemanbury on the right of the foreground - St Mary Aldermanbury which was rebuilt by Christopher Wren after the Great Fire of London in 1666 was later gutted by fire during the Blitz in 1940. The remains of the walls were removed and rebuilt in Fulton, Missouri in 1966 as a memorial to Winston Churchill, although the footings of the church remain on the original site in a public garden
