Lady Eleanor is a song written by Alan Hull, featured on the first Lindisfarne album, Nicely out of Tune. Released as a single in 1970, it failed to chart. In 1972 following the Top 10 success of the band's single Meet me on the Corner, from the highly successful second album Fog on the Tyne, it was re-released and became their second consecutive hit single, reaching Number 3 in the UK charts.

The song features the folk rock band Lindisfarne's characteristic combination of mandolin playing and close harmony singing. Its lyrics are inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's 1839 short story "The Fall of the House of Usher."
