St Benet Fink, Baroque church in Threadneedle Street, City of London, England
St Benet Fink church featured a decagonal structure topped with an oval dome and lantern, supported by six interior arches.
Following the Great Fire of London in 1666, architect Christopher Wren rebuilt St Benet Fink church, completing the structure in 1675.
The marriage of Puritan minister Richard Baxter to Margaret Charlton took place at St Benet Fink church on September 10, 1662.
The former location of St Benet Fink is now marked by a blue plaque at 1 Threadneedle Street, an eight-story office building.
A 10th-century Saxon gravestone discovered during the church's 1846 demolition suggests the site had religious significance centuries before written records.
