St Benet Sherehogとは 意味・読み方・使い方

St Benet Sherehog, additionally dedicated to St Osyth, was a medieval church built before the year 1111, situated at No. 1 Poultry in Cordwainer Ward, in the then wool-dealing district of the City of London. It was one of the 86 churches destroyed in the Great Fire of London, and it was not selected to be rebuilt when the 1670 Act of Parliament became law. It was united to St Stephen Walbrook in that year, but it continued to be represented by its own churchwarden. In 1685, a church report judged the unification a success. Nearly two hundred years later, however, this arrangement was still capable of causing tension. Some of its parish records survive, and they have been collated. Known as the “Lost Church of St Benet”, its site was excavated between 1994 and 1996, before the current office block was erected.
