PATERNOSTER SQUARE, CITY OF LONDON. A view of tables and seating in an empty restaurant at the Paternoster development.
Work on the Paternoster development was carried out in a joint venture by John Laing Construction Limited, Trollope and Colls Limited, and George Wimpey and Company Limited. The scheme involved the redevelopment of a seven acre site on the north side of St Pauls Cathedral. The site had been almost entirely devastated during an incendiary raid in December 1940. The development consisted of a series of office blocks, a shopping precinct, an extensive piazza and a three-level car park. The various blocks were named after former Bishops of London. The tallest block was 18-storeys in height and was called Sudbury House. The three 10-storey blocks were Courtenay, Walden and Grendall Houses, and the five-storey blocks were Laud, Sheldon and Bancroft Houses

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a bygone era at Restaurant JLP01_08_071118 in Paternoster Square, City of London. The image showcases an empty restaurant with neatly arranged tables and seating, offering a glimpse into the past. The Paternoster development was a remarkable joint venture between John Laing Construction Limited, Trollope and Colls Limited, and George Wimpey and Company Limited. It involved the redevelopment of a seven-acre site on the north side of St Paul's Cathedral that had been ravaged during an incendiary raid in December 1940. The ambitious project encompassed several office blocks, a shopping precinct, an expansive piazza, and even a three-level car park. Each block was named after former Bishops of London to pay homage to the city's rich history. Standing tall among these architectural marvels was Sudbury House, an impressive 18-storey structure that dominated the skyline. Accompanying it were Courtenay, Walden, Grendall Houses - all ten stories high - as well as Laud, Sheldon, and Bancroft Houses standing gracefully at five storeys each. This photograph transports us back to the 1960s when this interior space exuded elegance and sophistication. The bar stools add character to this timeless setting while inviting visitors to relax and enjoy their dining experience. Preserved within Historic England Archive's collection is this evocative snapshot from yesteryears – reminding us not only
