Plaque

St Margaret, Fish Street Hill

Inscription

Opposite this site stood St Margaret, Fish Street Hill, destroyed in the Great Fire 1666.
The Corporation of the City of London

Site: St Margaret, Fish Street Hill (2 memorials)

EC3, Monument Street

2021: We noticed that the site has been rebuilt and the plaque (now slightly damaged, but our photo does not show that) positioned on the new building, a little further west.  We've kept the photo of the earlier office building (light coloured walls with lots of squarish windows) and added a photo showing the plaque, now where the diners can read it.
