All Saints Church, Fulham, is an Anglican Church in Fulham, London, sited close to the river Thames, beside the northern approach to Putney Bridge. ==History== The building is situated in Bishop's Park overlooking the river Thames. There has been a church on the same site for more than 900 years. The church has a long association with the Bishops of London as Lords of the Manor. Fulham Palace, the former residence of the Bishops of London is nearby. Apart from the tower, construction of which began in 1440, the present church building dates from the late Victorian period, having been rebuilt in 1880–1 by Sir Arthur Blomfield, using squared rubblestone, ashlar dressings and Perpendicular style windows. Putney Bridge (and its predecessor Fulham Bridge) is unique in that it is the only bridge in Britain to have a church at both ends: the ancient St. Mary's Church, Putney is located in Putney, on the south bank, and All Saints Church, Fulham, is on the north bank. The church was featured in the film ''The Omen'', in a scene which begins in Bishop's Park, and ends with a bizarre accident where a priest (played by Patrick Troughton) is impaled by a lightning conductor on the top of the tower that is dislodged when it is hit by lightning. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「All Saints Church, Fulham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
