River Idle

River Idle je rijeka u engleskoj grofoviji Nottinghamshire. Nastaje spajanjem rijeka Maun i Meden kraj Markham Moora. Odatle teče na sjever kroz Retford i Bawtry prije nego što se kraj Mistertona u blizini Stockwitha ulije u rijeku Trent. Djelomično predstavlja granicu grofovije sa Južnim Yorkshireom kao i sa Lincolnshireom. Originalno je tekla na sjever od Idle Stopa i ulijevala se River Don kod Hatfield Chasea, ali su je melioracijski radovi 1628 skrenuli na istok.
