Comments on: Midwinter Light At Christ Church https://spitalfieldslife.com/2013/12/21/midwinter-light-at-christ-church/ In the midst of life I woke to find myself living in an old house beside Brick Lane in the East End of London Fri, 02 Jul 2021 17:20:53 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.5.13 By: Mike Kay https://spitalfieldslife.com/2013/12/21/midwinter-light-at-christ-church/#comment-1384530 Fri, 02 Jul 2021 17:20:53 +0000 http://spitalfieldslife.com/?p=104375#comment-1384530 Beautiful pictures. Looks like the organ is missing, or have I misinterpreted? Was it being rebuilt or something at the time the pictures were taken?
I’ve missed going to the organ recitals that were stopped by Covid.

Thank you for letting me see them!

I was brought up on stories about this church and I came back to it a few years ago as my great, great, great, great grandmother, Sarah Hurlin, was buried here. Her remains were excavated and taken to the Natural History Museum and I’m happy to say I was able to visit her this summer.
