St George in the East
Situated in Cannon Street Road, Whitechapel, London E1 0BH.
It was built between 1714 and 1729 with the funding from an Act of Parliament. It is one of the six London churches designed and built by famous architect Nicholas Hawksmoor.
The church was very expensive to build, at the cost of nearly £20k, it was designed to seat over 1,000 people.
In and around 1800, major work was done on the entrance steps. In 1820 a new vault was added, also the churchyard was drained. In 1829 the church was re-roofed. In 1871, box pews were removed in order to install new seating.
In 1880, 5 Venetian glass mosaics were installed in the apse, illustrating passion and resurrection scenes. The organ which was in poor state had to be rebuilt and between 1881-1886 this was completed by the firm Gray and Davidson.
In 1941 during the blitz the church received a direct hit from a bomb. The interior was destroyed by a severe fire that swept through the building. Fortunately the walls and towers survived intact. The mosaics were also saved but had to be restored.
A new interior was completed in 1964, designed by Arthur Bailey. The design, a much more simple plan.
Scenes from the film ‘The Long Good Friday’ were filmed in and around the churchyard.
Remember, these lessor known beauties were powered by 327ci Corvette firepower that added to their already fabulous looks and desirability.

Last taxed in 1982 although my guess is that it's been used off road much more recently than that. It only appeared here a couple of days ago.
I've realised how little I know about these. I thought they had a Rolls Royce engine, but that was the Champ. These had a version of the six cylinder BMC C series.
No they didn't. It was a 2.2 litre 4 cylinder engine as fitted to the Austin A70. I wasn't aware this engine existed!
Around 21,000 were built between 1958 and 1968; a fraction of the number of Land Rovers who were its main competitor. Unlike the Land Rover, this has steel bodywork.
They were also assembled in Australia and New Zealand although I don't recall ever seeing any in Australia by the 1980's.
