Weston is a village and civil parish in Nottinghamshire, England. It is located 10 miles south of Retford. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 312,[1] increasing to 393 (and including Grassthorpe) at the 2011 census,[2] Weston alone reported 333 residents at the 2021 census.[3] The parish church of All Saints is 13th century.
