NOTES: Built to celebrate British victory in the Napoleonic Wars, this church was badly firebombed in 1940 and much of the interior was destroyed. Post-war repairs were completed in 1951 when it reopened and served as the parish church for the Festival of Britain. See RIBA132601 for a black and white version of this image.
