St. Paul’s As I’ve Never Seen It Before

To me St. Paul’s is London’s church, if only because it stood unbowed to the Nazis as a symbol of defiance and hope.

Tonight though, in the evening sunlight, I saw it as I’d never seen it before in all its pristine beauty after a thorough cleaning.

The Newly-Cleaned St. Paul's

Thinking back, I don’t think I actually saw the cathedral until the 1960s, as my visits to Central London were usually fairly limited, despite living in the suburbs.  As an example, I didn’t visit the Tower of London until I was probably twenty. And that was because I was showing a friend from University around.
