For at least nine hundred years a church dedicated to St. Margaret of Antioch has stood in what now is Eastcheap. The earliest known reference is to a small wooden building in the year 1067. Later this church is referred to in mediaeval records by various names such as St Margaret Pattens and St. Margaret near the Tower.
Since the 15th century The Worshipful Company of Pattenmakers has been associated with the Church, and panels with the names of past masters may be seen on the south wall.
