Weets Hill is a hill in the West Craven area of Pendle, Lancashire, England.

It is 2.5 miles (4km) south-west of the town of Barnoldswick and is 4 miles (6.5km) north-east of Pendle Hill.

The hill was originally situated in Yorkshire, but following boundary changes in 1974 it moved into Lancashire.

The summit has a Triangulation Pillar and commands views over much of east Lancashire, the north Ribble Valley, north Aire Valley and the Yorkshire Dales.

The summit is approximately 247m (810ft) above the local towns of Barnoldswick, Salterforth, Earby, Kelbrook and Gisburn.

Stock Beck originates from the north face of the summit.
