St Bartholomew the Less
ADDRESS:
Smithfield Gate West Smithfield CITY OF LONDON, City, London EC1A 7BE
TELEPHONE:

This is a small parish church of 15th century origin - the tower and West Wall date back to that period and form the oldest standing part of the medieval hospital of St Bartholomew. The nave was rebuilt in the 18th and 19th centuries. The church also features some 1950s stained glass windows dedicated to doctors and nurses.
St Bartholomew the Less is, uniquely, a hospital parish church (made such by the letters patent of Henry VIII in 1547).
