History
Saint Katherine Coleman was built before 1346; it is likely that Coleman was the name of the builder. It was situated on Fenchurch Street. It was not damaged during the 1666 Great Fire of London, but needed to be rebuilt in 1739. In 1921 the parish was united to Saint Olave Hart Street (with All Hallows Staining) and the redundant church was demolished in 1926.
The parish of All Hallows Staining was united to the parish of Saint Olave Hart Street in 1870 and the church of All Hallows Staining was demolished in the same year. St Olave Hart Street still exists as a parish church.
