Does anyone know if there is a place to do brass rubbings in London? My mom did one at Westminster a long time ago and it is one of the most beautiful things. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I leave 6/26/17 for London.

The only place that I've found after my own search was at the Crypt shop of St. Martin in the Fields church. They had a nice selection of reproductions. Churches no longer allow rubbing on their original artworks, as it can damage them over time.

I was there this past September and it didn't look like something that gave them any trouble to operate.
