St Mary-le-Bow
St Mary-le-Bow
is a historic church rebuilt after the
Great Fire of 1666
by Sir
Christopher Wren
in the
City of London
on the main east–west thoroughfare,
Cheapside
. According to tradition a true
Cockney
must be born within earshot of the sound of Bow Bells (which refers to this church's bells rather than
St Mary and Holy Trinity, Bow Road
, in
Bow
, an outlying village until the 19th century).
