EC3V 9DS
The Gothic tower of St Michael Cornhill is sometimes called Wren's last work (it was finished in 1721) but was actually designed by his pupil Nicholas Hawksmoor. The rest of the church is by Wren. Thomas Gray, author of 'Elegy in a Country Churchyard' was baptised here having been born only a few yards away in 1716 and the church now houses his walking stick.
