33. St Mary-at-Hill – home of the Fish Harvest Festival. Tucked in between two atmospheric, cobbled alleys up from old Billingsgate market is another church with peculiar and diverse associations including trombone playing vicars and plague pits. Hear here from the fishmongers who help raise money at the annual harvest festival of the sea. Learn about what it was like before the old fish market closed. Hold your noses! With thanks to Fiona Lukas, church watcher for the Friends of the City Churches, Bill Halley and Thomas Wicker – from Billingsgate – past and present.
