St Mary Moorfields is a Roman Catholic church in Eldon Street near Moorgate, on a site previously known as Moorfields. It is the only Catholic church in the City of London.[1] Prior to a 1994 boundary change, the church was in the Borough of Hackney, such that there were no Catholic churches in the City.[2]
The present building, located at 4–5 Eldon Street, was opened in 1903, after the previous building had been demolished in 1899.[3] However, the foundation had a long history prior to this. A chapel was opened in 1686, but was suspended in 1689, in the aftermath of the Revolution of 1688.
The church serves as a hub for evangelism, especially directed at young people who work in the surrounding financial district. The church hosts monthly Opus Dei meetings,[4] and is also affiliated with the St Francis of Assisi Ramblers.
