Christ Church Spitalfields - alterations

Categories: Property, Religion

Event

Wikipedia says the works were done in 1850 but the church's own website confirms the date in the plaque and seems to say that all the Victorian alterations were undone ("a restoration of the church to its original state") between the 1960s and 2004.
