Burton Agnes Manor House is an English Heritage property, located in the village of Burton Agnes, East Riding of Yorkshire, England only a few yards away from the newer Burton Agnes Hall.

It is a surviving example of a Norman manor house with a well-preserved Norman undercroft; a hall house that was later encased in 18th-century brickwork. It is now a Grade I listed building. Much of the undercroft is built with local chalk.

It is open to the public from 11 am to 5 pm from April to October.
