Advantages: free, interesting crypt, peaceful Disadvantages: not so many memorials to look at
has an air of peace and tranquility and is a great place to sit and think and reflect. It is a world away from the noise of Saint Paul's just five minutes don the road which often just does not feel like a church.
What makes Saint Brides special is the little museum in the crypt. Descending the stairs there are maps, drawings and photographs of Saint Brides and the surrounding area through the centuries. To your left on entering the crypt is a faded brown regency dress. This is Elizabeth Rich's wedding dress. Unfortunately the label about it is quite old, faded and difficult to read.

I would hazard a guess that St Mary's is probably the most common church name in England. Where I live in Sheffield there is a large parish church on the fringe of the city centre called St Mary's and within a 5 mile radius of my house there are at least two other churches that bear that same name. About a decade ago I lived in a 16th century cottage under the shadow of another St Mary's in Chesterfield which is more commonly known as The Crooked Spire, but the St Mary's Church that I now see from my window is the one at Hansdworth. If you mention St Mary's Church round here it can certainly be confusing exactly which church you are actually talking about.
Historically Handsworth was a small hamlet, which is mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1089 although nowadays it has been absorbed into the sprawling suburbs of the city of Sheffield ...
