If you’ve ever wandered around the City of London on a weekend, you’ll know it’s an oddly serene place. Freed from the weekly crowd of bankers and hedge fund types, a strange peace descends upon the city. But there’s one place that stands out from the crowd, as beautiful as it is tranquil: the bombed-out ruins of the church of St Dunstan in the East.
The church was named for St Dunstan, a tenth-century monk with a colourful past. He survived brushes with black magic, leprosy, and the Devil himself to become Archbishop of Canterbury. St Dunstan in the East, following the saint’s example, boasts its own difficult history.
