(lost) St Bartholomew

Inscription

Site of St Bartholomew by the Exchange, burnt 1666, rebuilt by Wren, demolished 1841.
The Corporation of the City of London

Site: St Bartholomew (1 memorial)

EC2, Threadneedle Street

2021: Since we visited in 2012 the plaque has been moved around the corner into Bartholomew Lane, same building.  We must return and take another picture showing its location.

July 2022: The building is being renovated and we could not see the plaque anywhere.  Needs yet another visit in a few months.

June 2023: still not there. We've now marked it as lost.
