Greenhill is a district of Harrow. It was an ecclesiastical parish with similar but not identical boundaries in the London Borough of Harrow.

The parish church (dedicated to St John the Baptist) is at the junction of Station Road and Sheepcote Road. The parish war memorial for the Second World War is outside the church, but the names (and the First World War memorial) are inside the church.
