What Is the Oldest Building in London

What Is the Oldest Building in Londonの基本情報から最新動向までを徹底的にカバーしました。

If you’re a stickler for “building” meaning “still in original use,” then St. Pancras Old Church (built 314 AD? Maybe?—it’s complicated) is a contender. But historians argue that the current structure is mostly 19th-century rebuild. The Guildhall (1411) gets an honorable mention for its stunning crypt. And St. Bartholomew the Great (1123) is a beauty, but it’s still 400 years younger than All Hallows.

So next time you’re in London and you see a building that looks too old to be real, take a closer look. It might be the city’s quietest, oldest secret. And if you go to All Hallows, say hi to Margaret for me—she’s the one with the sparkle in her eye and a story about Roman bricks.

Just don’t ask her about the ghost. She’ll tell you there’s no such thing—but then she’ll smile. And that’s the oldest trick in London.
