Crown Court Scottish National Church, 1718 - 1909.
WC2, Crown Court
The main entrance to the church is in Russell Street, built into the facade of the much later Fortune Theatre. Behind this door there must be a rather long covered passage, effectively a tunnel, to the church. Maps going back to at least 1799 show a passage from Russell Street up to the south-west back of this church.
