This photograph shows a model of the 'Aldersgate's Flame' monument erected at the approximate site of John Wesley's conversion on 24 May 1738. The original house on this site no longer exists, and the area is now called 'London Wall', next to the Museum of London.
The modern bronze sculpture was erected in 1981 and commemorates John Wesley's pivotal conversion experience, featuring text from Wesley's journal describing this event.
