St. Etheldreda's

Interior of St Etheldreda's Upper Church, facing east towards the altar St Etheldreda's Church is in Ely Place, off Charterhouse Street in Holborn, London. The Roman Catholic church is dedicated to Æthelthryth, or Etheldreda, the Anglo-Saxon saint who founded the monastery at Ely in 673. It was the chapel of the London residence of the Bishops of Ely. It is one of the oldest Roman Catholic churches in England, and one of two surviving buildings in London dating from Edward I's reign. The chapel was purchased by the Roman Catholic church in 1874 and opened in 1878.
