Farndon is a small village and civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood, Nottinghamshire, England, lying just to the south of Newark-on-Trent. It occupies a compact core of older stone and brick buildings and sits amid gently undulating arable countryside, with a visible sense of medieval and agricultural history in its layout and some listed structures.

Today the village combines farming activity with commuter living, many residents working in Newark-on-Trent or travelling further afield by road and rail; local life centres on a village hall, a pub and occasional fetes, while the parish council and community groups focus on conserving the village character as modest development pressures continue.
