St Pancras, Soper Lane, Medieval parish church in City of London, England

St Pancras Soper Lane stood at the intersection of Pancras Lane and Queen Victoria Street, featuring Norman architectural elements with stone walls.

The church, built before 1170 on Soper Lane, was destroyed during the Great Fire of London in 1666 and never reconstructed.

The church took its name from the Roman martyr Saint Pancras and the soap makers who conducted business on Soper Lane.

The former location of St Pancras Soper Lane is marked by a commemorative plaque near Queen Victoria Street in the City of London.

The Latin name 'S. Pancratius in Vico Smegmatico' reflects the connection between the church and the medieval soap trade in London.
