Francis Greville (1 July 1667 – 11 October 1710) was the eldest son of Fulke Greville, 5th Baron Brooke and Sarah Dashwood.
He married Lady Anne Wilmott, daughter and eventual coheiress of John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester (who was the widow of Henry Baynton). They had two sons:
- Fulke Greville, 6th Baron Brooke (1693–1711)
- William Greville, 7th Baron Brooke (1695–1727)
Francis served as Member of Parliament for Warwick from 1695 until his death (though not between 1698 and 1701). He predeceased his father and his barony passed direct to his eldest son.
