The C19th, listed church, located behind Hyde Park Corner has a growing congregation and is popular for society weddings and high profile music by BBC. Royalty, prime ministers and celebrities have all attended. The project will provide further opportunity for congregation within the secular and spiritual realms and to be fully inclusive to all particularly locally. A cloister will be wrapped around the church in a reinterpretation of the cathedral form to give additional spaces. A Faculty, planning permission and listed building consent has been obtained for Phase 1. ‘Paul has listened and created an empathic and elegant solution for us, and a vision that was more than we had hoped for. I believe that the proposed development will help ensure that St Paul’s has a flourishing role in the future.’ Fr Alan Gyle, Vicar of St Paul’s
