St Martin Orgar was a church in the City of London in Martin Lane, off Cannon Street. Its name is said to derive from one Ordgarus (Odgarus, Orgarus, Ordgar, Orgar), a Dane who donated the church to the canons of St Paul’s. It is sometimes considered being one of the churches mentioned in the nursery rhyme "Oranges and Lemons".
