To St Paul’s for Evensong to celebrate the 350th
Anniversary of the grant to The Worshipful Company of Wheelwrights of its Royal
Charter in 1670.
We Livery Company Masters all gowned up in St Dunstan’s
Chapel – the usual burst of focused activity interspersed with greetings to by
now old friends, and snatches of conversation ! Our procession in took us to
seats directly under the Dome. There, I could listen to the soaring harmonies
and descants of the Choir rise upwards into the architectural perfection of
Wren’s Dome.
After the Service, there was a champagne Reception in the
Chapter House – the first time that I had visited that building.
