St Michael-le-Querne, also called St Michael ad Bladum, was a parish church in the Farringdon Within Ward in the City of London. It was destroyed in the Great Fire of London of 1666[2] and not rebuilt. The name is apparently a reference to a quern-stone as there was a corn market in the churchyard.
