North and South Wheatley is a civil parish in the Bassetlaw district, in the county of Nottinghamshire, England.

The parish touches Bole, Clarborough and Welham, Clayworth, Hayton, Saundby, Sturton Le Steeple and West Burton.

Much smaller but mainly residential, it maintains amenities such as a primary school, village hall and some leisure facilities.

The Wheatley Beck stream flows west to east through the parish and separates the two villages, before eventually draining into the River Trent.

The peak of the parish is at Wheatley Grange farm 1+1⁄3 miles (2.13 km) north of the villages, with a land elevation there of 65 m (213 feet).

The Roman Road from Lincoln crosses the River Trent at Littleborough and goes through Wheatley before reaching Doncaster.

[10] A Roman fantail bow brooch with pin and catchplate were also found in South Wheatley, as well as coins and a love token in the chapel field.

Landowners in later centuries became fragmented, they included the Markham family, the Earl of Shrewsbury, Lord Middleton and Marquess of Dorchester.

[12][13] The Grade II* listed Old Hall at North Wheatley has over the door the arms of Thomas Cartwright, and dates from 1673, possibly being the oldest dormitory building in the village.

[15] Many of the heritage residences were primarily farmhouses for housing agricultural workers as the parish was mainly rural, with much of the surrounding land used for that purpose.

[19] The Recreation Ground in South Wheatley lends itself to multi-use community events and sport activities, along with a children's playground.

[25] The churchyard contains a Calvary Cross (Grade II listed) that commemorates the men of North and South Wheatley who died in World War I.

[21] The church was thought to have been built in the 11th century, the surviving ruins of St Helen's consist only of an arch and its tower.
