The Hampton Ferry is a pedestrian chain ferry, which links the town of Evesham and the village of Hampton across the River Avon in the English county of Worcestershire. The ferry route dates back to the 13th century, when it was established by monks.

Hampton Ferry should not be mistaken for Hampton Loade Ferry, a rather similar passenger only chain ferry across the River Severn in the county of Shropshire.
