GB 0074 P69/NIC1 1539-1949 Collection 3.43 linear metres (79 production units). Parish of St Nicholas Acons, City of London , Church of England

The church of Saint Nicholas Acons was built in 1084 for Malmesbury Abbey. 'Acons' is probably a corruption of 'Haakon', a benefactor. The church was destroyed during the Great Fire of London in 1666 and was not rebuilt. The parish of Saint Edmund the King and Martyr was united to the parish of Saint Nicholas Acons in 1670. The parish of Saint Benet Gracechurch was united to the parish of Saint Leonard Eastcheap in 1670.

The united parishes of Saint Benet Gracechurch and Saint Leonard Eastcheap were united to the parish of All Hallows Lombard Street in 1864. The parish of Saint Dionis Backchurch was joined to All Hallows Lombard Street and united parishes in 1876. These united parishes were joined to the united parishes of Saint Edmund the King and Martyr and Saint Nicholas Acons in 1937 to form Saint Edmund the King and Martyr and united parishes.
