This is not the main station for Essex, that is Liverpool Street's job. Fenchurch Street only serves the southern part of it on the line to Southend and Shoeburyness. It is the smallest London terminal.

Originally terminus of suburban services, but died due to competition with the Underground and other public transport. The branch originally went to Shoreditch, Haggerston and Dalston Junction, where it went both ways down the northern city line. London Overground will reopen Dalston Junction, Haggerston and Shoreditch and also make a new station on it called Hoxton, but Broad Street will not reopen and the services will divert to Whitechapel.

Westminster Abbey,

18 years ago:
The gothic church Westminster Abbey in London, United Kingdom was established by Benedictine monks in the tenth century (late 900's A.D.) (and rebuilt in the 13th century by King Henry III) - since then it has evolved into both the coronation church for English royalty and the final resting place of monarchs.
Though at first Westminster Abbey was the burial place of kings, aristocrats, and monks, it soon became the tomb-of-choice (if there is such a thing) for the who’s who in England. Poets and writers like Geoffrey Chaucer, Charles Dickens, Thomas Hardy, Rudyard Kipling, and Alfred Tennyson; as well as scientists like Sir Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, and Ernest Rutherford were all interred there.
