Terre Hill is a borough in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Terre Hill was formerly known as "Fairville". It was incorporated as a borough in 1907 after a successful court battle to separate from East Earl Township. The borough was once considered to be the hub of cigar-making in Lancaster County. One of its most recognizable landmarks is the 19th-century clock at the borough hall.

Terre Hill has the second fewest residents of any incorporated borough in Lancaster County, with the exception of Christiana. The population of Terre Hill was 1,295 at the 2010 census and an estimated 1,435 in 2019. In 1910 the population was 882.

Terre Hill had one National Bank chartered during the Bank Note Era, and it issued National Bank Notes.
