Situated on the Strand, close to Somerset House and King’s College London, St Mary le Strand is one of central London’s finest examples of English Baroque architecture. Its distinctive silhouette, ornate exterior and richly decorated interior make it a striking landmark in the heart of the city. Once surrounded by busy traffic, the church now stands within a pedestrianised public space, offering a quieter setting amid the activity of the Strand and Aldwych. A Grade I listed building, St Mary le Strand remains both an active Church of England parish church and a cultural landmark. Its architectural distinction, fascinating history and varied musical programme make it a memorable destination for visitors exploring London’s historic Strand and a characterful setting for concerts in the city centre.
