North Muskham is a village and civil parish in the district of Newark and Sherwood in Nottinghamshire, England, set on the west bank of the River Trent a few miles north of Newark-on-Trent. It sits in a low-lying riverside landscape and is closely linked historically and geographically with neighbouring South Muskham, a setting that can be picturesque but subject to occasional flooding from the Trent.
The village retains a strong rural character: agriculture remains important locally, while many residents commute to Newark-on-Trent or Nottingham. Community life centres on traditional amenities such as the village hall and local pub, and there is a sense of history around buildings like the parish church of St Wilfrid's Church; its conservation-minded atmosphere and riverside walks make it popular with people seeking a quieter, rural lifestyle.
