Eastwood is a town in Nottinghamshire, England, six miles west of Nottingham. Its main industry was formerly coal mining, but the mines have now all shut.

The town is known as the birthplace of D. H. Lawrence, and many of his novels were inspired by the local area. His former home has been converted to a museum dedicated to the author.
