St Botolph Billingsgate, Medieval church site in Billingsgate ward, England

The church stood near London Bridge, positioned strategically at the intersection of Thames Street and Botolph Lane in the City of London.

Dating from medieval times, St Botolph Billingsgate served its parish until 1666 when the Great Fire of London reduced it to ruins.

The church carried the name of St Botolph, a 7th-century East Anglian saint who protected travelers at city gates across medieval London.

The former church grounds now contain a private garden called One Tree Park, maintaining a connection to the original religious site.

Archaeological excavations in 1982 discovered the church's vault beneath the aisle, revealing structural details from its 15th-century extensions.
