St Margaret Pattens
History
The church was first recorded in 1067, at which time the church was probably built from wood. It was rebuilt in stone at some unknown subsequent date but fell into disrepair and had to be demolished in 1530. It was rebuilt in 1538 but was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666. The present church was built by Sir Christopher Wren in 1687. It is one of only a few City churches to have escaped significant damage in the Second World War.
In 1954 St Margaret Pattens ceased to be a parish church and became one of the City’s guild churches, within the living of the Lord Chancellor and under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of London. They have a regular weekday, rather than Sunday congregation, drawn mostly from people who work in offices nearby. The tower accommodates the office of the Archdeacon of Hackney.
The church was designated a Grade I listed building on 4 January 1950.
Building
The church's exterior is notable for its 200-ft high spire, Wren's third highest and the only one that he designed in a medieval style. This is sometimes referred to as Wren's only "true spire". Its interior is a simple rectangle with some unusual fittings – the only canopied pews in London, dating from the 17th century. These were intended for the churchwardens. The initials "CW" which appear in one of the pews have been thought to refer to Christopher Wren, but they may also signify "church warden." Other features in the interior include a punishment box carved with the Devil's head where wrongdoers had to sit during the church service.
Name
The church's name is traditionally said to derive from pattens, wooden-soled overshoes, later soled with raised iron rings, that, as elsewhere, parishioners would be asked to remove on entering the church. These raised shoes enabled people to walk about the streets of London without muddying their feet. The church has certainly long been associated with their Livery Company, The Worshipful Company of Pattenmakers.
Another possibility is that the church's name actually commemorates a benefactor, possibly one Ranulf Patin, a canon at St Paul's Cathedral during the medieval period, although it would be most unusual for a benefactor to be commemorated in this way.

Went on a walk to visit this forest preserve. The lake is called sterling lake in Lake County, Illinois. Definitely worth a check-out!
Finished soles with leather hinges inlaid. Hinges and straps were attached to the sole using nails - these were hammered into a pilot hole created with a power drill so as to avoid splitting the wood (after an initial mishap)

Tai Cheong Bakery • 泰昌餅家
The bakery's most popular "Fat Patten's Egg Tart" （酥皮蛋撻）comes from former HK governor Chris Patten who used to be the bakery’s most regular customer and he particularly liked their egg tarts. Hence people began to call the egg tarts at this bakery “Fat Patten’s egg tarts”. They’re really delicious! Come and taste it and you will see why Chris Patten liked them that much. You can even find his photo on the window of the bakery.

The English Speaking Union promotes scholarship and the advancement of knowledge through the effective use of English in an expanding global community. I was invited to the Monmouth County Chapter Annual Spring Tea and National Shakespeare Competition presentation. Every year, an English teacher from Monmouth County is sponsored for a trip to England for three weeks at the Globe Theatre for an intensive Shakespeare program. The teachers across the U.S. return with their knowledge and experience to further enrich the education of their pupils in the appreciation of Shakespeare and the proper use of the English language.

The Governor of the British Colony of Hong Kong, Mr Chris Patten, and his family depart Government House for the last time at about 4 pm on 30 June 1997, a few hours before the handover of Hong Kong by the United Kingdom to the People’s Republic of China. A farewell ceremony had been held in the grounds of Government House. The Governor was heading to the Royal Yacht Britannia, prior to attending the Farewell to the British Administration Ceremony in the evening and the Handover Ceremony at midnight. The photos were taken from the slope opposite which is part of the Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens.
