The church stood on the south side of Thames Street in Dowgate ward, to the east of the All Hallows the Great.

The church was renovated again in 1616; at this time dormer windows were installed on the south side, "the interior, being very dark and gloomy".

In 1670 Parliament passed a Rebuilding Act and a committee was set up under the stewardship of Sir Christopher Wren to decide which churches would be rebuilt.

[2] All-Hallows-the-Great itself was demolished in 1894[7] and the united parishes were in turn joined with that of St Michael Paternoster Royal under the Union of Benefices Act 1860.

[9] The church is the setting for the London Institute in Cassandra Clare's young adult book series, The Infernal Devices.
