St Martin's Church, now demolished, was among the oldest churches in the city of Lincoln, England. It was rebuilt in 1873 but then demolished in 1879.
It is possible that during the Anglo-Saxon period and during the Danelaw, St Martin was considered to be the patron saint of Lincoln. The church is likely to have been associated with the rare St Martin silver pennies minted in Lincoln, probably before 918 AD, when Lincoln was taken back from the Danes by the Anglo-Saxons.
