	The records won't be with the church, they'll be with one of the records offices that cover London: Guildhall Library Westminster Archives London Metropolitan Archives I checked on FamilySearch and that says that the originals for St Botulph Bishopgate are at the Guildhall Library. Website address for Guildhall is: www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/leisure_heritage/libraries_archives_museums_galleries/city_london_libraries/guildhall_lib.htm Cheers Richard
