SAINT MARTIN IN THE FIELDS SECOND PART

Saint Martin in the Fields is a beautiful eighteenth-century church located to the right of the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, London. It was once outside the walls of the Westminster area and has an elegant interior and a vast crypt that houses the tombs of famous individuals such as the painter William Hogarth and the philosopher Francis Bacon. The church is also associated with the Pearly Kings and Queens, a Victorian institution that collects funds for charitable and social purposes.
