Foremarke Hall is a Georgian-Palladian country house (stately home, manor house). Completed in 1762, the Hall is located at the manor (hamlet) of Foremark, near the hamlets of Ingleby, Ticknall, Milton, and the village of Repton in South Derbyshire, England.
It is the current home of the Repton Preparatory School. Before becoming the Preparatory School, Foremarke Hall was the ancestral home of the Burdett family of Bramcote. It is a Grade 1 listed building.
The school and a Great Western Railway "Modified Hall" class steam locomotive, no. 7903 are named after this hall.
