An interior view of the Lower Chapel of St Thomas on the Bridge, a bridge chapel built near the centre of London Bridge, with windows looking out over the river. Founded c.1205, it was in use as a chapel until 1548, during the Reformation, when it converted to a residence and warehouse. The Upper Chapel was removed in 1747 (when this print was produced); the lower chapel survived until the whole bridge was demolished in 1832. This print originally had a view of the Upper Chapel above. Both views were drawn by Vertue, based on a survey by the architect Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661-1736), published in a pamphlet called A Short Historical Account of London Bridge in 1736.
