St Mildred, Bread Street, Baroque church building in Bread Street, City of London.

The church featured a plastered dome, short barrel vaults, and decorative elements with a Portland stone frontage designed by Christopher Wren.

Originally built in the 12th century, St Mildred was reconstructed between 1677 and 1683 following its destruction in the Great Fire of London.

The church became a center for evangelical influence with notable clergymen Thomas Scott and Daniel Wilson leading services in the late eighteenth century.

The site of the former church currently houses the office building at 30 Cannon Street in the financial district of London.

Poet Percy Bysshe Shelley married Mary Godwin in this church on December 30, 1816, before its destruction by bombing in 1941.
