@wychstreet.bsky.socialReposted by @thegentleauthor.bsky.socialChrist Church Spitalfields is the best Hawksmoor church & the best building in London I think, but at St Mary Woolnoth he lays his cards on the table - he’s not unsettling but scary. For the optimisitic a statement about the fear of God, for others (London doesn’t foster optimism) rather different..
