St Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe
St Pauls, London EC4

St Andrew-by-the-Water lies in a little explored but charming maze of alleyways to the south of St Paul's Cathedral, concealing many shops and pubs. 

The curious name dates from 1361, when the King's Wardrobe, (the ceremonial clothes of the royal family, was moved to a building nearby. 

The present building, dating from 1685 - 95, is one of 51 churches created by Sir Christopher Wren in London after the Great Fire of 1666.
