St Martin at Palace Plain, Norwich is a Grade I listed redundant parish church in the Church of England in Norwich.[1]

The church purchased an organ dating from 1863 by Corps and Son. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register.[2] The organ was transferred to St Mary and St Andrew’s Church, Horsham St Faith, Norwich in 1973.
