This church is a hidden treasure of history in East London. The only Anglo-Saxon rood cross in London is kept inside, a stone panel depicting the crucifixion. There are also stain-glass windows depicting an Aryan Christ by Hugh Easton, and some great gargoyles and grotesques on this church of the Merchant Navy and all sailors of the British Empire. Certainly one of the most interesting and culturally valuable buildings in the borough of Tower Hamlets and well worth a visit by locals and tourists alike. Not far from Queen Mary's University and Brick Lane.
