Background
History
St Mark's was built in 182528 as a response to the shortage of churches in the area. The population in Mayfair had grown with the demand for town houses by the aristocracy and the wealthy, as they moved in from the country. The building was constructed in the Greek revival style to the designs of John Peter Gandy. Gandy produced most of his work in Neo-classical designs, with St Mark's being one of the finest examples. In 1878 architect Arthur Blomfield made substantial changes to the church interior, introducing a Romanesque open roof structure, wall decoration and architectural detail.
