Eyam Hall is a 17th century historic house in the village of Eyam, Derbyshire, England, UK, situated in the Hope Valley, off the A623 from Chapel-en-le-Frith to Chesterfield. It is a Grade II* listed building.

The Hall was built ca. 1676 by the Wright family, about 11 years after the plague outbreak in the village of Eyam. The same family still owns the house.
