Christmas Carol
View map
| Date: | 06 December 2011 |
| Time: | 6.30PM |
| Location: | All Hallows Church by The Tower of London |
The Saxon Abbey of Barking founded the church of All Hallows by the Tower in 675 AD. An arch from the original Saxon church remains.
William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, was baptised in the church and educated in the schoolroom (now the Parish Room).
John Quincy Adams, sixth president of the USA, was married in All Hallows in 1797.
In 1940 the church was bombed and only the tower and the walls remained, but the late Queen Mother laid a new foundation stone in 1948 and attended the re-dedication service some nine years later.
On Tuesday 6 December, we hosted our Christmas Carol Service at All Hallows Church by The Tower of London.
This special event made a lovely start to the Christmas season and included readings from guests such as broadcaster/ journalists Alice Beer, Loyd Grossman and Esther Rantzen CBE and TV personality and presenter Chris Tarrant.
There was plenty of traditional Christmas carolling, accompanied by the choir of Boutcher Primary School and the event was perfect for families. After the service, guests stayed for a glass of fine wine and tasty mince pies!
