	In 1710, [[Anne, Queen of Great Britain\|Queen Anne]] urged {{Wiki\|Parliament of Great Britain\|Parliament}} to pass an {{Wiki\|New Churches in London and Westminster Act 1710\|act}} allowing for the construction of fifty new churches in [[London]]. The act was passed, but building fifty churches is easier said than done; only twelve of what were called Queen Anne's churches were ever built. The first Queen Anne church was [[St. Mary le Strand]], on the former site of the largest maypole in London. A rise in ~~{{Wiki\|~~Puritans\|Puritanism}} in the 1660s meant that many of the city's maypoles were torn down by religious extremists due to their "heathen" origins; this maypole fell over from a high wind in 1672.

	In its original plans, St. Mary's featured a 250-foot column to honour Queen Anne. A statue of the Queen was to sit atop the column, but I think the actual Queen should have sat on top of the 250-foot column. That I'd go and see. No matter, though; the design was approved and materials were acquired, but the plan was quietly cancelled following Anne's death in August of 1714.
