North Reston is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Reston, in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England, and on the A157 road about 4 miles (6 km) south-east from the town of Louth. In 1961 the parish had a population of 36.[1] On 1 April 1987 the parish was abolished and merged with South Reston to form "Reston".[2]

North Reston is listed in the 1086 Domesday Book with 13 households, a meadow of 30 acres (0.12 km2), woodland of 100 acres (0.40 km2), 2 mills, and one church.[3]

The parish church is dedicated to Saint Edith and a Grade II* listed building. Dating from the 11th century, it was largely rebuilt using greenstone and ironstone in 1868 by R. T. Withers, with some reused early medieval material.[4]

North Reston Hall is a Grade II listed late 17th-century painted brick farmhouse with early 19th-century additions and some 20th-century alterations.[5]
