Canute's Palace in Southampton, England, is the name given to the ruins of a Norman merchant's house dating from the late twelfth century.

The antiquarian, Sir Henry Englefield suggested that the building had been a palace of Canute the Great, but in fact the house is unconnected with him.

[3] In April 1801, Englefield presented a very detailed paper to The Society of Antiquaries of London describing the building, in which he said: Perhaps I indulge but a fond conjecture, when I consider it possibly the hall from which Canute, surrounded by his courtiers, viewed the rising tide; and from whence he descended to the beach, according to that most interesting narrative of our old historians, to repress by a striking and impressive lesson, their impious flattery.

[4]In 1833, the building was described in The Gentleman's Magazine in which the author, "An Architectural Antiquary", says: "The remains of a very magnificent Norman mansion, improperly called Canute's Palace at Southampton, furnishes the best examples of the elliptical arch with which I am acquainted".

[2] The building is now part of Town Quay Park, which includes the remains of many historical properties in the southern section of the city.
