Weekley is a small village in Northamptonshire, beyond on north-eastern outskirts of Kettering, with a narrow green space separating it from the swelling town, and nestled against Boughton Park - the parkland surrounding Boughton House, to the east. The River Ise passes the eastern edge of the village, and beyond it is a similar village, Warkton.

The parish church is St Mary's, which is in a shared benefice with Geddington to the north.

At the time of the 2011 Census, the parish's population was record as 297.

Many houses in Weekley have thatched roofs. The A4300 road runs through the village.
