St Martin's Without is a civil parish in the Peterborough unitary authority in the United Kingdom.

It was originally created in 1889 under the Local Government Act 1888 from the part of the Stamford Baron St. Martin parish which was outside the municipal boundary of Stamford. It became part of the Barnack Rural District of the Soke of Peterborough, geographically part of Northamptonshire from 1894, and under the Local Government Act 1972 has formed part of the Peterborough district of non-metropolitan Cambridgeshire since 1974.

The parish contains parts of Burghley Park.
