Chatsworth is a community in Grey County, Ontario, Canada. Chatsworth is located south of Owen Sound and north of Durham where Highways 6 and 10 merge. The village neighbours Williamsford, Dornoch, and Desboro.

Originally named Johnstown, Chatsworth was founded in 1848 at the northern terminus of the Toronto-Sydenham Colonization Road. Modern Highway 10 follows most of the original road's route.

Famous Canadian suffragette Nellie McClung was born in Chatsworth.
