The Bell Tower and St Lawrence's church, is a redundant Anglican church in the centre of the town of Evesham, Worcestershire, England. Along with its neighbour, All Saints, it was built by the Benedictine monks of Evesham Abbey on the River Avon in the 12th century. It was significantly rebuilt in about 1470, replacing the earlier church. From 1659 it ceased to have its own vicar and was served by the clergy of All Saints. The fabric of the church deteriorated and by the winter of 1718 it had become unusable and following a roof collapse in 1800, the church was abandoned.
