This is the Guild Hall in Derby, taken in the evening.It is also known locally as the 'market place' and was built in 1828.
I hope to return soon and get a few more shots in different light and from different angles. This particular image is actually 3 shots taken in 'landscape orientation', starting from the ground and finishing with the sky, then magically sewn together in Lr and corrected for converging lines in Ps. The film simulation is Acros with a red filter.
Tarnished, but I just picked up piano again recently. For macro Mondays. jspianolab.com/piano-guild/
Guild Church of St Mary Aldermary
Situated at 69 Watling St, London, EC4N 4SJ.
There has been a church on this for about 900 years. The patronage belonged to the Prior and Chapter of Canterbury and was later transferred to the Archbishop in 1400.
Sir Henry Keeble paid for the building of a new church in 1510, but he died in 1518 leaving the tower still to be finished. It wasn’t until 1629 where two legacies enabled the church to be completed by 1632.
Poor Henry Keeble what was supposed to be his resting place, his dream was short-lived. His mortal remains were removed to be replaced by those of Two Lord Mayors, Sir William Laxton and Sir Thomas Lodge. To add insult to injury, his monument was also destroyed.
The church was badly damaged by the Great Fire of London in 1666, the tower and parts of its walls survived. A gentleman called Henry Rogers had left a legacy of £5,000 of which his widow had stipulated that the church should be rebuilt as a replica of the old one.
Sir Christopher Wren did the majority of the rebuilding in the ‘Gothic’ style. Pevsner writes ‘It is the chief surviving monument of 17th century Gothic revival in the City’.
Another church that was destroyed in the Great Fire ‘St Thomas the Apostle’ was now united with St Mary’s. St Thomas’s was not rebuilt.
A new organ was installed, built by George England and Hugh Russell in 1781. There were major restorations between 1876-77. A new Oak Screen was added, pews and stalls were replaced. The organ was moved from the Western Gallery to the Chancel, new glass to windows and a new Reredos installed.
The church was damaged in the Second World War but the damage was minor when set against the destruction to other churches in the vicinity.
The church was designated a Grade 1 listed building in 1950
April 2005 was the last major restorations, particular attention to plaster ceilings, memorials on the North Wall.
There are many famous people buried here but many are forgotten to us. Past Lord Mayors, Military figures and members of the Clergy glorified at the time but now not remembered in the mists of time. I found one reference to Richard Chaucer, a vintner, said to be the father of Geoffrey Chaucer of Canterbury Tales fame.
Since 2007 St Mary’s has been the Regimental Church of the Royal Tank Regiment. Also if you look at the many stained glass windows you will see many emblems of the London Guilds (Trades).

Another quick build for the Kaliphlin Civil War challenge for Guilds of Historica on EB. This depicts the Desert King's minions cornering a High Council scout the old fashioned way. Thanks to LifeLites for the awesome LEDs!
Thanks for looking!

"Legends and Horror Stories of Historica"
There are all manner of scary stories told throughout the ages in Historica. Some are surely simply tales created for entertainment around a fire on a fall evening. Some may be fairy tales sometimes used by parents to try to keep their children close to home during dangerous times. Some may result from the, er, "impaired" sensory experiences of wandering travelers. But, some, some are true.....
Historica is an ancient land with magics and mysteries stretching many generations.
Who can tell the fact from the fiction?
You?
I doubt it.
There's still time to join in on the fun! Here's the link to the Challenge thread over on Eurobricks:

Part 4/4: Crumbly Conclusion
~~~
Times, like dough, were kneaded and reshaped. The Baker’s Guild, once a fortress against the vagaries of the market, crumbled like stale bread.
The King had grown weary of the guild’s stranglehold on the realm’s bread supply. With a stroke of his pen, he dissolved the guild. Bakeries, once warm beacons in the cold mornings, began to dim. Some, unable to weather the storm of unrestricted competition, shuttered their doors.
The art of baking, once passed down through generations like sacred scripture, began to fray at the edges. Yet, in the heart of some, a stubborn ember of tradition refused to be extinguished. They would carry the torch, though the path ahead was shrouded in uncertainty.
