The Mortality Bill for the year 1665 , published by the Parish Clerk’s Company, shows 97 parishes within the City of London[1]. By September 6th the city lay in ruins[2], 86 churches having been destroyed[3]. 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[4]. Fifty-one were chosen, but St Andrew Hubbard was one of the unlucky minority never to be rebuilt[5]. The church was situated in Philpot Lane[6] in the area known as Little Eastcheap [7] and took its name from Hubert, a mediaeval benefactor [8]. Its parish records are among the most detailed in the UK[9] and and have been extensively researched[10], for example they tell us it was a thriving but rat-prone living. After the fire the church was united with St Mary-at-Hill and the site used to build the Royal Weigh House[11].Substantial records survive at IGI[12]
