Margaret of Clermont (French: Marguerite; 1104/05 – after 1145) was a countess of Flanders and Saint-Pol.

Her parents were Renaud II, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis and his first wife, Adelaide, Countess of Vermandois (daughter of Herbert IV, Count of Vermandois).[1][2]

Margaret was first married to Charles I, Count of Flanders. The marriage was brief and childless.[2] Later, c. 1128, Margaret married Hugh II, Count of Saint-Pol; they had two sons.[2] Her third husband was Baldwin of Encre.[2] They had a daughter.[2]
