The village and civil parish of North Leverton with Habblesthorpe sits in the district of Bassetlaw in Nottinghamshire, England, a few miles north of Retford and close to the county boundary with Lincolnshire. It occupies low-lying arable country near the wetlands of the Idle Valley, an area prized locally for its birdlife and outdoor walks.
Historically an agricultural community, the parish combines the compact village with the hamlet of Habblesthorpe and retains a strong village identity centred on traditional cottages, a village pub and community events. Its best-known landmark is the restored, working 19th-century North Leverton Windmill, which draws visitors on open days, while many residents now commute to nearby towns, giving a mix of farming heritage and modern commuter living.
