St Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe
St. Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe〔Prior to the King's wardrobe moving to the adjacent area it was known as ''St Andrew by Castle Baynard''- "The Churches of the City of London" Reynolds H.: London, Bodley Head, 1922〕 is a Church of England church located on Queen Victoria Street, London in the City of London, near Blackfriars station.
==History==
First mentioned around 1170,〔"London:the City Churches Pevsner,N/Bradley,S : New Haven, Yale, 1998 ISBN 0-300-09655-0〕 St. Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe was almost certainly founded considerably earlier. During the 13th century the church was a part of Baynard's Castle, an ancient royal residence. In 1361, Edward III moved his Royal Wardrobe (a storehouse for Royal ''accoutrements'', housing arms and clothing among other personal items of the Crown) from the Tower of London to just north of the church. It was from this association that the church acquired its unique name.
The Wardrobe and the church, however, were both lost in the Great Fire of London in 1666.〔"The Old Churches of London" Cobb,G: London, Batsford, 1942〕 Of the 51 churches designed by Sir Christopher Wren after the Great Fire, St. Andrew-by-the-Wardrobe is among the simplest of his designs; it was rebuilt in 1695.
The church was again destroyed during the London blitz by German bombing; only the tower and walls survived. It was rebuilt and rededicated in 1961.
