St Clements Church Eastcheap

In the 19th century the church's interior was remodelled, its ceiling a replica of the original, depicting a wreath of flowers and fruit. The canopied pulpit is resplendent with elaborate carvings and the panelled walls are typical of the 17th century.

St Clement Eastcheap considers itself to be the church referred to in the nursery rhyme that begins "Oranges and lemons / Say the bells of St Clement's". So too does St Clement Danes Church, Westminster, whose bells ring out the traditional tune of the nursery rhyme three times a day. St Clement Eastcheap's claim is based on the assertion that it was close to the wharf where citrus fruit was unloaded.

St Martin Orgar was a church in the City of London in Martin Lane, off Cannon Street. Most of the building was destroyed in the Great Fire of London in 1666, but the tower and part of the nave were left standing. The parish was merged with St Clement Eastcheap.

The remains of the church were restored and used by French Protestants until 1820. Most of the remaining building was then pulled down, but the tower remained and was rebuilt in 1851 as the campanile of St Clement Eastcheap. The churchyard of St Martin's remains to the south of the campanile.
