Leonards Hill is a village located in the Shire of Hepburn, Victoria, Australia.

[1] South of Daylesford on the Ballan road, the town takes its name from timber splitter, W P Leonard who took up 143 acres (58 ha) of land on the hill in the 1860s.

[2] The village first started as a saw milling settlement satisfying the demand for timber required in the mining industry in the then nearby goldfields of Daylesford, Smeaton, Allendale, Creswick and Ballarat.

At its height, the then much larger village, had a school, blacksmiths shop, bakery, hotel, butchers shop, several churches, 3 general stores and a post office, now all closed with little evidence remaining of their locations.

[3] The Leonards Hill railway station was a stage of the Daylesford to North Creswick line until services were withdrawn in July 1953.
