History of the united parishes:

The churches of Saint Andrew by the Wardrobe, Saint Ann Blackfriars, Saint Peter Paul's Wharf, Saint Benet Paul's Wharf, Saint Mary Mounthaw, Saint Nicholas Cole Abbey and Saint Nicholas Olave were all destroyed in the Great Fire of London, 1666.

Saint Ann Blackfriars was not rebuilt and the parish united to Saint Andrew by the Wardrobe in 1670. Similarly, Saint Peter Paul's Wharf was united to Saint Benet Paul's Wharf in 1670, and Saint Nicholas Olave was united to Saint Nicholas Cole Abbey in 1670.

Saint Mary Mounthaw was originally a private chapel for the Montenhaut family. It was not rebuilt after the Great Fire and the parish was united to Saint Mary Somerset in 1670, and the united parish was united to Saint Nicholas Cole Abbey in 1866.

Saint Benet Paul's Wharf was rebuilt by Wren, 1677-83 and the parish united to Saint Nicholas Cole Abbey in 1879, when the church became the London church of the Welsh Episcopalians. Saint Nicholas Cole Abbey was rebuilt by Wren in 1677, gutted in 1941 and restored in 1962. The parish was united to Saint Andrew by the Wardrobe in 1954.

The church of Saint Andrew by the Wardrobe was rebuilt by Wren, but destroyed in 1940, except for the walls and tower. In 1955-61 it was rebuilt to Wren's original plans.

The records of these parishes were deposited with the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library at various dates from 1902. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
