Barnby in the Willows is a small village and civil parish in Newark and Sherwood, Nottinghamshire, England, tucked into the low-lying agricultural landscape beside the River Witham and a short distance from Newark-on-Trent. The village name reflects the historic willow-lined floodplain and its riverside character, and the built environment mixes traditional brick and stone cottages with farm buildings.
Its roots go back to medieval times and the settlement retains a quiet, rural community feel; local life tends to revolve around the church and village institutions, with farming still important and many people commuting to nearby towns for work. The riverside setting makes the area pleasant for walkers and birdwatchers, while proximity to Newark gives easy access to market town amenities and main road links.
