Paynes Find, also called Paynes, is a settlement approximately 430 kilometres (267 mi) northeast of Perth in the Mid West region of Western Australia.

It was originally founded after the discovery of a gold bearing quartz vein; a roadhouse, a battery, and a few other buildings remain today.

Alongside its fluctuating gold activity the area is known for its annual everlasting bloom, and sheep stations.

Water supply was an ongoing issue for mining at Paynes both for drinking and for the operation of the battery.
