Weedon Lois (or Lois Weedon) is a village in the English county of Northamptonshire due west of the town of Towcester.

It is part of South Northamptonshire district and forms a civil parish with neighbouring Weston.

Its name came from the Old English "Wēo-dūn" = "Temple Hill": before Christianity came there may have been a heathen temple there.

For Weedon Bec, Upper Weedon and Lower Weedon, see Weedon, Northamptonshire.
