[ The "Churches of the City of London" Reynolds,H: London, Bodley Head, 1922] In 1670 a Rebuilding Act was passed and a committee set up under the stewardship of Sir Christopher Wren to decide which would be rebuilt. [ "Wren" Whinney,M London Thames & Hudson, 1971 ISBN 0500201129] Fifty-one were chosen, but St Peter Paul’s Wharf [Sometimes known as “St Peter Parva” “The London City Churches”, Norman,P.: London, The London Society, 1929] to the north of Upper Thames Street in Queenhithe Ward ["A Dictionary of London" Harben,H: London, Herbert Jenkins, 1918] was one of the unlucky minority never to be rebuilt.
