The St Augustine with St Philip's Church is a Grade II* listed former Victorian church in Whitechapel in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, subsequently converted for use as a medical library for Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry and known as the Whitechapel Library.[1][2][3]

History

The red-brick church was designed by Arthur Cawston, built in 1888–1892, located behind the former Royal London Hospital. It is on the site of an earlier chapel built in 1818-1821 dedicated to St Philip. After the Second World War it was combined with the parish of St Augustine's, Stepney, and made redundant in 1979. It was converted into a medical library in 1985-1988 and opened by Anne, Princess Royal, on 21st November 1988.[1]

The Royal London Hospital Museum is located in the crypt of St Philip's Church.

Interior

There are eight medically themed stained-glass windows designed by Johannes Schreiter. These represent the London Hospital, Gastroenterology, AIDS/HIV, Ethics, Medical Diagnosis, the Influenza Pandemic, Molecular Biology and the 'Elephant Man'.[4]
