Denbury Manor is an historic manor house situated on the edge of the village of Denbury in Devon, England. It was long owned by the Reynell family of East Ogwell, who also held the adjoining manor of West Ogwell. The Reynell estates passed by marriage to the Taylor family in the 18th century. The manor house is a 17th-century building with a Georgian front and has a gatehouse and boundary wall built by Walter Septimus Curtis circa 1912-14. The house and its associated buildings are listed as Grade II on the National Heritage List for England.
Denbury Manor has an Edwardian garden on a site that was known to be inhabited in the 11th century. The garden features two summerhouses and gate piers. Near the village is Denbury Hill, an Iron Age hill fort that attests to the long history of human habitation in the area.
