Weston-on-Trent is a riverside village and civil parish in South Derbyshire, Derbyshire, England, sitting on the south bank of the River Trent.

Today Weston-on-Trent is a close-knit rural community with local amenities such as a village hall and pubs, and many residents commute to nearby towns while enjoying country life.
