Church of St Clement with St Barnabas and St Matthew, King Square, Islington EC1 - Islington
Designed by Thomas Hardwick and built in the 1820s, forming one side of a Georgian square now replaced with 1960s housing blocks. The interior was re-ordered by Norman Haines in 1953. Works to re-slate the nave roof along with repairs to the parapets and coping stones, and the overhauling of rainwater goods were completed in 2019 with funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Further repairs and removal of damaging iron cramps are required to the tower and spire.
