In existence by the late 11th century, it was destroyed during the Great Fire of London of 1666 and not rebuilt.

The church was situated on the west side of Nicholas Lane in Langbourn ward of the City of London.

[3] The church is recorded as early as 1084, when Godwinus and his wife Turund gave its patronage to Malmesbury Abbey.

Instead the parish was united with that of St Edmund the King and Martyr, Lombard Street in 1670.

[7][8] In 1964 the churchyard was excavated and important Saxon remains found,[9] but in the last decade of the 20th century Gordon Huelin noted that only a City Corporation commemoration at the site of the old parsonage remained to indicate a church had ever been there.
