Leeanne according to the GenUKI page the LDS has filmed the parish registers so your local Family History centre should be able to order them in for you. You can find which one is nearest by searching on the LDS site a www.familysearch.org

Definitely at the LMA - I've used them. They are on open access on microfilm and you can pop in to use them without having to book. Just check London Metropolitan Archives website for opening hours. Brenda

This is from GenUKI "St Pancras old church has been there since Roman times (314), has a 6th.cent altar stone and some Norman features though heavily "restored" since. Entering the postcode NW1 1UL at http://www.streetmap.co.uk/ should find it for you. St Pancras Old Church ceased to be the parish church of St Pancras in 1822 when the St.Pancras New Church was opened and became a chapel of ease in the parish of St.Pancras.. In the 1852 Old St.Pancras was assigned a parish again, known as Old St.Pancras. For an unknown period from 1863 it was known as Pancras Parish Chapel, befor reverting to Old St.Pancras again. It has a website. The LDS rather confusingly continues to call the registers for St.Pancras New, St Pancras Old." the church s on what is now St Pancras Way (used to be Pancras Road) theres an image of it on this page: http://www.images-of-london*co*uk/jss/product.php?xProd=2104 I think the registers would most likely be at the LMA now
