Quernmore (pronounced "kwor-mer") is a village and civil parish in the City of Lancaster district of Lancashire, England. It is about three miles east of Lancaster itself and, according to the 2001 census, had a population of 532. Apart from Quernmore itself, the parish also includes Brow Top, once a local crafts mecca, now merely a cluster of barn conversions, like a last outpost of civilisation before the Trough of Bowland.

The village consists of a small number of residential properties nestling in the bottom of a small valley, the Methodist chapel being the heart of the community. The local public house, the Temperance Hotel, used to be the Dog and Partridge (this name can still be seen on the electrical substation, 100m to the south). It became the Temperance Hotel after the construction of the Thirlmere Aqueduct, completed 1894, as a consequence of the rowdiness of the navvies working on the aqueduct.
