Shuckburgh Hall is a privately owned country house mansion at Lower Shuckburgh, near Daventry, Northamptonshire.

The estate has been the home of the Shuckburgh family since the 12th century.[1] The house, which was granted Grade II* listed building status in January 1952, is not generally open to the public.[2]

The house has its origins in the 14th and 15th centuries but has been much altered and extended over many years. The main front, designed by Henry Edward Kendall Jr. in an Italianate style, was built onto the old house in 1844.[3]
