St Dunstan-in-the-West, Gothic Revival church in Fleet Street, City of London, England.

The octagonal nave church combines brick and stone construction, featuring an expansive interior space with decorative stained glass windows throughout the structure.

The original medieval church stood until the 1830s when John Shaw designed the current building, which opened on January 17, 1830.

The church maintains deep connections to London's printing industry due to its location on Fleet Street, the former center of British journalism.

The building holds regular Church of England services and includes a dedicated Romanian Orthodox chapel within its premises for additional worship.

The church clock from 1671 stands as London's first public timepiece to incorporate a minute hand, marking a technological advancement in timekeeping.
