St. Mary Magdalen, Milk Street, Medieval church in City of London, England
The church stood on the east side of Milk Street, north of Cheapside, near numerous merchant houses and commercial establishments in Cripplegate Ward Within.
Constructed in the 12th century, St. Mary Magdalen met its end during the Great Fire of London in 1666, leading to the creation of Honey Lane Market.
The parish established itself as a Presbyterian center before the Civil War, with clergy members Thomas Case and Thomas Vincent leading the congregation.
The former church location transformed into the City of London School from 1835 to 1879, serving educational purposes for the local community.
Sir Thomas More, who opposed Henry VIII's separation from the Catholic Church, received baptism at this church near his birthplace on Milk Street.
