Keyworth (/ˈkwərθ/) is a large village and civil parish of Nottinghamshire, England. It is located about 6 miles (10 km) southeast of the centre of Nottingham. It sits on a small, broad hilltop about 200 feet above sea level which is set in the wider undulating boulder clay that characterises the area south of Nottingham.

The village logo is a local windmill which was demolished in the 1950s. The former site of the windmill was located on Selby Lane.[2]

Keyworth is twinned with the French town of Feignies.
