Harby Hill Wood is a 16.9 hectare biological Site of Special Scientific Interest west of Eastwell in Leicestershire.[1][2]

This site has steeply sloping ash and sycamore woodland, with areas of spring-fed marsh and colonies of wild daffodils. There is also an area of species-rich dry grassland, which has flora such as pignut and musk thistle.[3]

The site is private land but it is crossed by public footpaths.
