Plaque

St Pancras Church

Inscription

Site of St Pancras Church, destroyed in the Great Fire 1666.
The Corporation of the City of London

Site: St Pancras Church (1 memorial)

EC4, Pancras Lane

This garden used to have a low wall along the boundary with the pavement and the plaque was mounted on that. But, 2012, we noticed that the wall had gone, the plaque was relocated to the side wall (you can just see it to the right of the ivy-clad tree in our picture) and carved seating had been placed in the garden for the office lunchers. See Studio Weave for the project.

This is a lovely plaque but the fireman's helmet on a plaque for a police constable is odd. It doesn't even seem as if a fire was involved.
