THE JOURNALISTS’ CHURCH
      

Known as the ‘Cathedral of Fleet Street’, St Bride’s Church has been at the heart of the printing community for over 500 years.

The church held a vigil at the start of the Wapping printing dispute in 1986 – and newspaper owners and union leaders prayed there together.
