        The church of Saint Stephen Coleman Street was on the west side of Coleman Street near the junction with Gresham Street. In the medieval period it was also known as Saint Stephen Jewry. The advowson was held by the Prior of Butley from the canons of Saint Paul's. During the Civil War it was a low church stronghold. Destroyed in the Great Fire, the church was rebuilt by Wren in 1674-6, but destroyed again by bombing in 1940. The ruins were demolished and the site redeveloped. The parish was united to Saint Margaret Lothbury in 1954.

        Other parishes united to Saint Margaret Lothbury: Saint Martin Pomeroy, Saint Bartholomew by the Exchange, Saint Mildred Poultry, Saint Mary Colechurch, Saint Olave Jewry and Saint Christopher le Stocks.
