The Fust Baronetcy, of Hill in the County of Gloucester, was a title in the Baronetage of England. It was created on 21 August 1662 for Edward Fust, who had earlier fought as a Royalist in the Civil War. The title became extinct on the death of the sixth Baronet in 1779.

The 2nd, 3rd and 4th baronets all served as High Sheriff of Gloucestershire (in 1675, 1702 and 1718 respectively}.
