St Alphage House was a 1960s office block on Fore Street in the City of London. It was built by the developer Maurice Wingate to a design by Maurice Sanders Associates. It is named after Saint Alphege and the church St Alphage London Wall whose ruins are below. It was built as part of the redevelopment of London Wall and was one of a series of similar blocks built between 1957 and 1976.

It was announced in 2009 that the building was to be "stripped out" by the City of London Corporation for tax reasons.
The site has been proposed for redevelopment on numerous occasions. The contractor, Hammerson, has won permission to redevelop the site based on a design by Make.
As at July 2014, St Alphage House has been demolished along with the Highwalks that surrounded it.
