SUMMARY:St Mary Islington - Church and Tower Tour
DESCRIPTION:Discover the history of Islington’s first parish church and climb the 120 steps to the top of tower for the best panoramic views across London. \nSt Mary’s church on Upper Street has played a central role in the history of Islington for over a thousand years and\, during this time\, several different churches have stood on the site\, leaving an eclectic mix of architectural styles. \nFind out about the 12th century Norman church\, its 15th century medieval successor and the 18th century rebuild. During The Blitz of World War II St Mary’s suffered extensive damage – only the tower and steeple survived the bomb. The church was rebuilt in 1956 as a fascinating example of post-war reconstruction\, enhanced by many unique artworks of interest. \n⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “A brilliant tour… We were impressed by [the guides’] knowledge\, enthusiasm and storytelling. And the view of London from the tower… is a feast for the eyes!” \n⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “A very interesting 90 minutes. Guide friendly\, well-prepared\, informative and easy to listen to. Getting to the top of the 18th-century church tower is the highlight.” \nFor more info and booking for this tour please use this website link. \nThis tour is repeated monthly – to see all our up-coming tours please visit our Eventbrite page here
