About

The decades over which St. Paul's was re-built after the Great Fire were some of the most brilliant in scientific history. The Royal Society not only had Wren within its Fellowship but also Robert Hooke and John Tillotson, Dean of the Cathedral. Then in association were craftsmen like Thomas Tompion and Richard Reeves, whose instruments made the new science possible. And the place where they all came together was Gresham College.
