The Church St Alfege marks the place where Alfege, Archbishop of Canterbury, was killed by the Vikings on 19 April 1012. A church was built in 1290 and King Henry VIII was baptized in 1491. It is a storm that in 1710 damages the building, then it is asked Nicholas Hawksmoor, assistant of architect Christopher Wren, to rebuild it. During the Blitz in 1941, the church was bombed and the roof was affected. Walls and tower are spared, but the interior is largely devastated.
