Weldon is a small village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, England, lying just a few miles from the industrial town of Corby. It has a compact historic core with a parish church and older stone cottages set against rolling agricultural countryside, giving long views over the surrounding valleys and a distinctly rural feel despite its proximity to larger settlements.
Local life mixes traditional farming roots with commuter households who work in Corby and beyond; community activity centres on a village hall and occasional events, while the lanes and footpaths around the parish are popular with walkers and those who appreciate quiet village life with easy access to services and employment in the neighbouring town.
