Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
The church of Saint Ann, Blackfriars, was established in 1538 to replace the church at the monastery of Blackfriars, which had been destroyed as part of the Dissolution. The church was burned down during the Great Fire of London in 1666 and was not rebuilt. The parish was united with Saint Andrew by the Wardrobe (P69/AND1).
