Description
Cross section and an elevation, signed by the minister and church-wardens, undated; drawn on a scale of 10 feet to an inch. The original Norman building partially collapsed through a combination of age, neglect and river subsidence in 1736. This was replaced, by 1740, with a structure designed by Henry Flitcroft which in turn was severely damaged in the major 1843 Tooley Street fire.
