St Peter Mancroft is a parish church in the Church of England in the centre of Norwich, Norfolk. After the two cathedrals, it is the largest church in Norwich. It was originally established by Ralph de Gael, Earl of East Anglia, in circa 1070. It was later rebuilt, between 1430 and 1455. It stands on a slightly elevated position, next to Norwich Market. St Peter Mancroft is a member of the Greater Churches Group.
