Shaw Hill is an 18th-century country house in Whittle-le-Woods, Lancashire, England, standing in 192 acres of parkland some 3 miles (5 km) north of Chorley. The estate is now the Shaw Hill Hotel, Golf Club and Country Club.

The house is a three-storey building of ashlar with hipped slate roofs concealed by a parapet, and it incorporates elements of a smaller, earlier house. Three structures from the estate are separately recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated Grade II listed buildings: the lodge,[1] the gate piers,[2] and the house itself.[3]
