Geschiedenis
The parish church of Saint Augustine Watling Street was on the north side of Watling Street. It was partly rebuilt in 1630-1631. Burnt in the Great Fire of 1666, it was rebuilt by Wren in 1682-1695. Restoration was carried out in 1829 and 1866. It suffered bomb damage in 1940, after which only the tower and spire remained. The tower was restored in 1954 and incorporated into the Saint Paul's Choir School in 1965-1967.
The parish of Saint Faith under Saint Paul was united to the parish of Saint Augustine Watling Street in 1670. They were, in turn, united to the parish of Saint Mary le Bow in 1954.
