2009-08-07e St George's Church

Walking through London I got a little lost, but the internetz tell me this is St George's church in Hanover Square, Mayfair.

In 1711 Queen Anne decreed that 50 new churches were to be built to serve London's expanding population (the fifty churches act / Queen Anne churches). St George's was designed by John James and built between 1721-1724. The windows are composed of 16th century Flemish glass, imported from Antwerp.

Taken with a Nikon D40 fitted with a Nikkor AFS DX 18-55mm F/3.5-5.6G II lens.
