EDITORS COMMENTS
All Hallows Barking: A Snapshot of History and Resilience All Hallows Barking, depicted in this engraving from 1750, holds the title of the oldest church in the City of London. Nestled in the heart of the historic city, this venerable place of worship has stood the test of time, bearing witness to the rich tapestry of London's history. The church's enduring legacy can be traced back to the 7th century, making it one of the oldest religious sites in the city. Its name, Barking, is believed to originate from the Old English word 'biercan,' meaning 'to bark,' which may refer to the barking of the dogs kept by the monks who once resided there. All Hallows Barking's storied past includes surviving the devastating Great Fire of London in 1666. The inferno, which engulfed much of the city, left many structures in ruins, but the church miraculously emerged unscathed. However, during World War II, the church was badly damaged during the Blitz. The bombing raids left the building in a state of disrepair, with much of its historic fabric destroyed. Following the war, extensive reconstruction efforts were undertaken to restore the church to its former glory. The painstaking process involved careful preservation of the remaining original features, as well as the addition of new elements to reflect the church's long history. In 1957, All Hallows Barking was rededicated, standing once again as a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of the City of London.
