St Paul, Covent Garden (1631-8) by Inigo Jones. I believe the church was originally faced in stucco rather than the current stone, which was added after the church was badly damaged by fire in the late 18th century.

St Paul's Church, also commonly known as the Actors' Church, is a church designed by Inigo Jones as part of a commission by Francis Russell, 4th Earl of Bedford in 1631 to create "houses and buildings fitt for the habitacons of Gentlemen and men of ability" in Covent Garden, London, England.
As well as being the parish church of Covent Garden, the church gained its nickname by a long association with the theatre community.
