Ince Manor monastic grange and fishpond is a medieval agricultural complex in Cheshire that belonged to the monastic lands of the region. The site comprises the physical remains of a grange, a working farm estate dependent upon a monastery, together with an associated fishpond that would have supplied both food and income to the religious house. The grange dates from the medieval period, reflecting the extensive landholdings and economic organisation of monastic communities in northwest England. The survival of both structural and earthwork evidence at the site provides material testimony to the agricultural practices and resource management strategies of medieval monasticism.
