St Martin's church was completed in 1863 and was designed by George Bodley. The beauty of the church is famous in the area and features excellent examples of preRaphaelite stained glass.

One of the most striking aspects about St Martin within Ludgate's exterior is its tall, sharp leaded spire, which when seen from the lower part of Fleet Street, is a deliberate foil to the massive rounded dome of St Paul's Cathedral beyond.

There is no certainty about the date of the construction of the church. The first mention of the building dates from 1183. There is also a reference from the 13th century. Back then, the church was called Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk (Our Lady’s Church). The worship of Saint-Martinus, to whom the church is called today, started in the 14th century. There are indications that the building burned down in 1360 and was destroyed again in 1380. Because of religious quarrels and economic problems from the 16th century onwards, it took more than 150 years to build the church as it is now. In the end, the construction stopped unfinished in the 17th century. At the moment, resaurations are going on: the exterior is under construction from 2003-2020, the interior from 2020-2027 and the art objects from 2017-2027.

The construction of Sisland church possibly started soon after the Norman Conquest, although very little of this early building now remains. Seen from the lane it is a thatched brick building, whitewashed except for where the windows and doors are picked out in red brick. There are heavy buttresses, which seem quite unnecessary, and a wooden bell tower rises at the east end.

A church was first established on this site in the aftermath of the Dissolution of the Monasteries when Cartmel Priory was dissolved as part of the Henrician Reformation and a chapel was built on the present site using materials from Cartmel around 1537.
