St Laurence's Church in Reading, Berkshire, is a Norman church built around 1150, originally a parish church and now a Church of England mission. Situated adjacent to the former Reading Abbey, the building incorporates elements of the abbey's associated institutions, notably the remains of the Hospitium of St John's private chapel, which survives in the north aisle. A Grade I listed structure, the church stands as a significant example of Norman ecclesiastical architecture within the town's medieval religious landscape.
