There has been a church on this site since the early middle ages, some say even late Roman or early Saxon times. However, the current building was renovated (meaning rebuilt in Victorian terminology) during the mid 19th century which makes it newer than St Pancras New Church on The Euston Road nearby.
St. Pancras train station in London is one of the absolute gems of Victorian architecture. You get a chance to visit it in all of its restored glory if you are boarding the Eurostar fast train from London to Paris. It makes a lovely pigeon coop, too!
Difficult not to take a photo of this fine building when the light is shining on it. And the rendering and sharpness from the Flexaret is wonderful.

Looking out from St Pancras station. Not an easy one to meter for, I just best-guessed the shadows but in future might try splitting the difference.
Even with medium format at 80 mm the distortions of the verticals are quite noticeable.
Some nice details if you zoom-click such as the huge rivets on the metalwork at the top, and a stray suitcase departing the scene bottom right.

I am very proud of this image and here's the reason why. My 21-year-old son walked by today as I was working on it and he grunted, then said "cool". He usually only grunts at my macro insect photos that look like characters from one of his computer games. And to get a "cool" out of him, well, how much better can it get?

This tunnel leads to the underground station from the North of St Pancras Station in London. To find it ask the underground staff for directions. When trying to find it on my own I failed completely.
A birds eye view of this parish church which dates back to the 12th century. This view was taken from the top of the South Downs with a long lens!

… the main hall in St Pancras feels empty, almost soulless in lockdown, but the purity of its architecture stands out even more.
