Mr. ALLEN WALKER : ' London's Great Buildings—The Priory Church of St. Bartholomew '

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

ONE of the oldest and most interesting buildings in London is the little Norman Church of St. Bartholomew-the-Great, Smithfield, hidden away behind the great hospital which was founded at the same time. Huilt by Rahere, said to have been a Court jester before he became a Canon of St. Paul's, it has been changed singularly little since it was built eight centuries ago. In his talk this afternoon Mr. Allen Walker will tell the history and describe the interesting features of the church.
