This year we will be hosting the Lord Mayor at The Crypt of St Etheldreda’s, a magical medieval Crypt in Ely Place (EC1N).
One of London’s hidden gems, St Etheldreda’s is a truly beautiful and historic building and the oldest Roman Catholic Church in England.
With its History of Celebration and Celebration of History, the 600 year–old Grade1 listed Crypt at St Etheldreda’s has been hosting celebrity parties in the heart of London ever since King Henry V111 held his three-day wedding feast there in 1531.
Today The Crypt offers the same superb standards of excellent hospitality which United Wards Club members will have the opportunity to experience at this year’s Civic Luncheon with catering done by the Bleeding Heart.
