All Hallows Lombard Street was a parish church in the City of London. It stood in Lombard Street near the corner with Gracechurch Street,〔 in Langbourn Ward,〔('Book 2, Ch. 23: Langbourn Ward', ''A New History of London: Including Westminster and Southwark'' (1773), pp. 656-661 ) accessed: 11 January 2009〕 The west end faced into Ball Alley. Of medieval origin, it was rebuilt following the Great Fire of London. It was demolished in 1937; its tower was reconstructed at Twickenham as part of the new church of All Hallows, which also received its bells and complete interior fittings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= All Hallows Twickenham: History )〕 ==Medieval church== All Hallows is first recorded in 1054,〔 〕 when a citizen of London called Brihtmerus gave its patronage to the prior and chapter of Canterbury Cathedral.〔 John Stow calls it "All Hallows Grasse Church" because "the grass market went down that way, when that street was far broader than now it is". The church was rebuilt around the beginning of the 16th century. The south aisle is recorded as having been completed in 1516. The north aisle and other works were paid for by the Pewterer's Company. The bell tower was completed in 1544 and the stone porch from the dissolved monastery of St John of Jerusalem, near Smithfield was reconstructed at All Hallows. The monastery's bells also were purchased, but, due to the death of a benefactor, never installed, leaving the tower with only one bell.〔. Seymour takes his information from Stow's ''Survey''.〕 Following the dissolution of monasteries the patronage was transferred to the Dean and Chapter of Canterbury.〔 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 Hallows Lombard Street」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
