Destruction Plans Foist On London Churches
A bishop’s commission recommends demolishing nineteen historic churches in central London two thirds by Wren, preserving towers in seven cases. Protests mount led by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. The sites, valued near 9.5 billion pounds, lie near the financial core between St Paul’s and the Tower.
