St Bartholomew's Church Gatehouse

Site: St Bartholomew's Church Gatehouse (4 memorials)

EC1, West Smithfield, St Bartholomew's church

The restoration of this church was the first major work by Aston Webb. His brother, Edward, was churchwarden at the time. Webb and colleagues had the WW1 memorial installed, which includes the name of his son, Philip.

The small Wallace plaque is about halfway along the path from the gatehouse to the church, on the north side.

Photos of the 2015 "Ceremony Of The Widow’s Sixpence" plus early photos of the site at Spitalfields Life. And more at A London Inheritance.

In the 1940s this gatehouse served as a, very small, rectory for the church.
