St. Bennet Fink, was dedicated to St.
Benedict, vulgarly called St. Bennet, an
Italian saint, the founder of the order of
Benedictine monks; and received the ad-
dictional name of Fink from its rebuilder
Robert Fink. It is situated on the south
side of Thread-needle-street. The old
church being destroyed in the general
conflagration in 1666, the present edi-
fice was erected in its room. The body
is of an irregular form, enlightened by
large arched windows, which reach to
the roof; this is incompassed with a
balustrade, and crowned with a lantern:
a dome rises upon the whole extent of
the tower, and on its top rises a turret.
This church is a curacy in the patro-
nage of the Dean and Chapter of Wind-
sor, who generally supply it with one of
their own Canons. The Curate receives
100l. a year in lieu of tithes.
