St Mary Mounthaw, Medieval parish church in Old Fish Street Hill, City of London, England

The church building stood at the intersection of Old Fish Street Hill and Upper Thames Street, near the northern bank of River Thames.

The structure originated as a chapel for the Mounthaunt family from Norfolk before being acquired by Ralph de Maydenstone, Bishop of Hereford, in 1234.

The church contained burial sites of notable religious figures, including John Skypp, who served as the personal chaplain to Queen Anne Boleyn.

Following the Great Fire of London in 1666, the parish merged with St Mary Somerset, and the site became a designated graveyard.

The remains of individuals buried at St Mary Mounthaw were transferred to the City of London Cemetery in Manor Park during local redevelopment.
