St Benet Paul's Wharf, Anglican church building in City of London, England.

Located near the Thames River, this red brick church features alternating Portland stone courses and a tower with a lead dome.

Following destruction in the Great Fire of 1666, Christopher Wren rebuilt the church, which reopened its doors in 1683.

The church conducts services in Welsh with English translations, maintaining strong ties to the Welsh Anglican community in London.

The building contains dedicated seating areas for Officers of the College of Arms, who use the church for official ceremonies.

Twenty-five Officers of the College of Arms rest in the church's burial grounds, making it a significant heraldic location.
