Maze Hill is an area in Greenwich and Blackheath, in south-east London, lying to the east of Greenwich Park, and west of the Westcombe Park area of Blackheath. It is part of the Royal Borough of Greenwich, and takes its name from the main thoroughfare, Maze Hill. It gives its name to Maze Hill railway station.

The architect Sir John Vanbrugh lived on Maze Hill in a house of his own design overlooking the park.[1] Royal Ordnance Factories F.C. once played here.

One of the two sites of the comprehensive secondary school, the John Roan School, is situated on Maze Hill[2] (the other is on Westcombe Park Road).

Maze Hill and Westcombe Park fall within the Blackheath Westcombe ward of the Royal Borough of Greenwich.[3]
