In 1872 during the construction of St Mary Mags, there was a fire that destroyed the new roof. The roof had to be re-done delaying the opening of the church. #churchhistory#paddington#oldlondon
St Mary Mags, with the original lighting system. Also the orginal sanctuary and high altar elevation, before it was replaced with the current alabaster platform and railings. #backintheday#paddington#stmarymagdalenepaddington
