Dunham on the Hill is a former civil parish, now in the parishes of Dunham-on-the-Hill and Hapsford and Manley, in Cheshire West and Chester, England. It contains ten buildings that are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated listed buildings, all of which are at Grade II. This grade is the lowest of the three gradings given to listed buildings and is applied to "buildings of national importance and special interest". Apart from the village of Dunham on the Hill, the parish is entirely rural. Other than the village church, and a pair of cottages, the listed buildings are, or have originally been, all associated with farming.
