Burgh Castle er en landsby og civil parish i det engelske amt Norfolk. Den ligger på østbredden af floden Waveney, cirka 3,7 miles vest for Great Yarmouth og inden for Broads National Park. Sognet var en del af Suffolk indtil 1974.
Burgh Castle er stedet for en af flere romerske fæstninger, der blev bygget for at huse kavalleri som forsvar mod sakseriske angreb op ad floderne på Østens og Sydkystens sydlige England. Muligvis var dette Gariannonum, et navn der fremgår i nogle kilder; identifikationen blev engang antaget at være sikker, men anses nu for tvivlsom af specialister. Fæstningen er groft rektangulær, cirka 205 m lang og 100 m bred, med tre af de høje, massivt bygget mure stadig bevarede; den fjerde faldt ind i det, der engang var en bugt, men nu er en vådområde, Breydon Water.
