Norgrove Court is a stately home near Redditch in North Eastern Worcestershire built in 1649. It is listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England and was documented by the architectural historian N Pevsner.
Located on Norgrove Lane in the parish of Feckenham, the manor sits near the hamlets of Elcock's Brook and Callow Hill. To the south west of the main house is the Old Cottage, which is listed Grade II and is the only surviving outbuilding of the house.
In the area, Sir Thomas Cookes (1648–1701) settled endowments on Bromsgrove School and Worcester College, Oxford, with a preference for students from Feckenham among others. The manor has been nationally recorded as a listed building since 1954.
