Reviews of St Vedast alias Foster

It has some of the best Grinling Gibbons carvings I've seen in a City church.

Grade I Listed, attributed to Christopher Wren and much restored over the ages integrates fittings, an organ and accoutrements from destroyed City churches.
A notable Baroque steeple, modern stained-glass, noteworthy plaster ceiling, a collegiate pew configuration and a distinctive patterned floor add to the tone and timbre here.
The secluded courtyard garden, a tranquil retreat, warrants special mention. Some intriguing items here add an unexpected twist to memorable surroundings.

This review focuses on the tiny courtyard of the church. On the walls of this peaceful spot are four intriguing items:
1. A section of Roman mosaic pavement from a demolished. church (no mystery except why is it here);
2. A sculpture of a profile of a head by Jacob Epstein (whose head and why is it here?);
3. A section of cuneiform text (where is it from and why is it here?); and
4. A tribute to a soldier who served three empires (and did Jeffrey Archer get the title for one of his books from this plaque?)

In 1989 my mum and I left the St Paul's tube station, intending to visit the cathedral for Morning Prayer. We were waylaid by the bells of St Vedast and were so welcomed there. As Anglicans visiting from the States, we were treated as especial guests. It was one of my warmest recollections from my stay in London.

This church has fantastic bellringing! Stand outside on Monday evenings or Sunday mornings (in non covid times) to hear it

Nice church in the catholic tradition of the Anglican Church of England. Mass is at 11:00 on Sunday and weekdays at 12:15 although I'd check before making a journey. Incense, bells and holy water are used on Sunday. The pews are tiered on either side of the nave and face each other like a long choir type arrangement that I've seen in Georgian era churches previously.
