Paternoster Valley (Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.) is a valley extending southwestward from Stygian Cove in northern Signy Island. So named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) from the occurrence of three small paternoster lakes, at different levels in the valley.[1]

Sombre Lake is the northernmost lake, so named by UK-APC because of the sombre setting of the lake and the proximity of Stygian Cove.[2] Changing Lake is the central lakes. This proglacial lake was named by UK-APC because the lake slowly changes shape and size as the retaining land ice gradually retreats.[3] Moss Lake is the southernmost lake, named by UK-APC because a luxuriant stand of moss covers the deeper part of the lake.[4]
