Christchurch Greyfriars

This time I decided to draw two of Wren’s towers which remain standing, but without the rest of the church. The first was Christ Church Greyfriars in Newgate Street which was destroyed in the Blitz when a bomb hit the roof in December 1940. Two of the walls are still intact and the ruined interior is now a public garden, which can be glimpsed through the doorway on the left.

An interesting encounter which happened while drawing was when I was spoken to by a Security guy who said he hoped I wasn’t going to draw the Merrill Lynch bank buildings which are next to the church, or “they’d have to ask questions” - which sounded vaguely threatening, although his manner wasn’t. I said not to worry, it wasn’t the type of architecture I was interested in!

This left me feeling rather sad though, the irony is the modern financial buildings are supposed to be invisible, you're not allowed to look at them, whereas in fact they are dominating the City of London and it’s the historic bits which are becoming invisible, squeezed into tiny gaps. The new ones going up are even co-opting the historic names of the sites they overshadow, such as “The Monument Building” and "The Wallbrook", so destroying what they pretend to preserve, so eventually only the names will be left.
