One of London’s hidden architectural gems, St Mary le Stand is a masterpiece of English Baroque design, attributed to the legendary James Gibb, whose vision has shaped some of Britain’s most iconic buildings. With its grand columns, intricate ceiling, and historic charm, the church offers an atmosphere as rich and evocative as the music itself.
