Anne Knollys (known, after her marriage, as Anne West, Lady De La Warr) (1553–30 August 1608) was a lady at the court of Queen Elizabeth I of England.
She was the third daughter of Sir Francis Knollys, Treasurer of the Royal Household (1514–1596) to Queen Elizabeth I, and his wife Catherine Carey.
Her maternal grandparents were Sir William Carey and Mary Boleyn. Mary was a sister of Anne Boleyn, second wife of Henry VIII of England. Anne Knollys' mother was thus a first cousin of Queen Elizabeth, daughter of Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII.
On 19 November 1571 at Wherwell in Hampshire where they subsequently lived, she was married to Thomas West, 2nd Baron De La Warr, with whom she had several children:
* Walsingham West, died young.
