St Georges Bloomsbury

St Georges Bloomsbury

“One of the capital’s most wonderful buildings.” (The Guardian)

St George's Bloomsbury is the sixth and final London church designed by the leading architect of the English Baroque, Nicholas Hawksmoor. Originally consecrated in 1731, St George's was reopened to the public in 2006 following a five-year restoration initiated and managed by the World Monuments Fund and made possible by the generosity of the Paul Mellon Estate and the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Today, St George's is a thriving parish church, concert venue and centre for community arts & education located at the heart of Bloomsbury, two minutes walk from the British Museum. Both the church and our new multimedia exhibition, Hawksmoor & Bloomsbury, are open daily to visitors.

Bloomsbury Village Neighbourhood Plan, London. UK

Bloomsbury Village sits directly in front of The British Museum and is the historic area that the government tried to demolish in the 1970's but was won by George Wagner and the Bloomsbury Association in The Battle of Little Bloomsbury.

Now the Village looks to the future with the formation of the Bloomsbury Village Neighbourhood Plan in July 2011.
