Sir Peter de la Mare (died c. 1387) was an English politician who is best remembered as the Presiding Officer of the House of Commons during the Good Parliament of 1376. Before becoming speaker, he worked variously as a toll collector, High Sheriff of Herefordshire in 1372, and as a steward to Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March. It was probably his connection to Mortimer that earned him his position in Parliament.
