The earliest mention of St Margaret Lothbury is from 1185 [ "London:the City Churches” Pevsner,N/Bradley,S New Haven, Yale, 1998 ISBN 0300096550] . It was rebuilt in 1440 [ "The City of London Churches" Betjeman,J Andover, Pikin, 1967 ISBN 0853721122] . It suffered as did so many of London's churches in the Great Fire of London of 1666 and was rebuilt by Christopher Wren from 1686 to 1690. The church actually has 17th century woodwork from other now-demolished Wren churches ["The Old Churches of London" Cobb,G: London, Batsford, 1942] . Among the best are the reredos, communion rails and baptismal font, which are thought to be by Grinling Gibbons ["The Visitors Guide to the City of London Churches" Tucker,T: London, Friends of the City Churches, 2006 ISBN 0955394503] from St Olave, Old Jewry, and the pulpit from All-Hallows-the-Great.
