- De kerk van Saint-Dunstan-in-the-East werd in de jaren 1817-1820 gebouwd naar een ontwerp van David Laing. Van de oude kerk bleef alleen de toren uit 1669 staan. John Gray plaatste in 1821 een orgel in deze kerk aan de westzijde van het schip. Het orgel uit het vorige kerkgebouw werd door Gray overgeplaatst naar de abdij van Saint Alban. Het nieuwe orgel is in 1866 door Bryceson verbouwd. In 1912 herbouwde de firma Hill & Son het instrument met pneumatische tractuur en een nieuwe speeltafel. In 1941 ging het orgel verloren door bombardementen.
- De ruïne van de kerk staat nog altijd in de stad met de onbeschadigde toren. Tussen de noord- en zuidmuur van de kerk is een tuin aangelegd met bomen en een fontein.
