Norton Conyers House is a grade II* listed late medieval manor house with Stuart and Georgian additions sited in North Yorkshire, England, some 4 miles (7 km) north of Ripon.

The frontage has distinctive Dutch-style gables and is thought to be the inspiration for Charlotte Brontë's novel Jane Eyre. It has an 18th-century garden surrounding an Orangery. The house is currently undergoing restoration but is open for occasional guided tours.

It is built in two storeys with a four-bay frontage to a square floor plan of brick with a Westmorland slate roof. The nearby stable block is also grade II* listed.[1]
