Newtimber Place is a Grade I listed building[1] in the Mid Sussex district of West Sussex, England.[2] The house sits on a D-shaped island in a moat.[2] The oldest part of the house dates from the 16th century.[2]

The north wing is apparently the oldest part of the building, dating from the 16th century.[2] It was considerably extended in the 17th century by the addition of the east wing.[2] The house is built from flint and red brick with stone quoins.[2]

The grounds are in the northern part of the civil parish of Newtimber, which gets its name from the building.[2]
