45. Hidden within the walls of the ancient St Barts Hospital is the church of St Bartholomew the Less... part medieval, part Georgian and part Victorian... this church is a welcome place of contemplation for the patients of and visitors to the hospital. It also has an unusual shape and some stained glass of note. It's a short podcast but not a lesser one!

44. Ok, it’s not a City church (it’s a stone’s throw from the boundary) BUT it’s worth a podcast. It’s hidden: set back from the quiet cul de sac behind the diamond district of Hatton Garden, St Etheldreda’s Catholic church is a gem of its own; a medieval survivor and a spiritual survivor that happens to boast some magnificent stained glass windows too. Most importantly its story reflects a bigger national story. Press play!

With thanks to marvellous contributors Anthony Weaver from the church and Alexandra Epps from Art in the City.

43. St Helen's Bishopsgate. From the weird bollard outside the church to the unusually elaborate doorway that leads out of it, St Helen's is full of curiosities and features I've not yet encountered while producing this series. Here you will find nun's squints, raised floors, sunken fonts and the oldest sword rest in the City. More than this, here are two churches rolled into one. This is a fascinating church.

Kevin Larder enlightens us all... thank you Kevin!
