Northampton in General

This is a lovely town to live in. With a huge choice of schools including Faith Schools, Private schools not too far away and state schools. Things to do: Northampton has the serene Abington Park to walk your dogs and frolic in the sun all summer long.

I grew up in a small village in Northampton until I was 14 years old. We used to get the bus into town on a saturday armed with enough money to look about on the market which is a good one.

At sixfields there is also a pizza hut,KFC and mcdonalds. It has a great bar there but I can't remember its name! ...  Read the complete review

So how do you sell a town like Northampton as a place to visit for the day tripper or tourist, well that must be one of the most challenging jobs going because if I'm honest there is not a lot to attract the day visitor to the town, no historically famous land marks, no large impressive buildings, in fact the only building I can think of that has gained any national recognition is the towns bus station and that was only because it made the final of a national competition titled something like "Buildings that should be torn down". It is an absolute eye sore and sits in the middle of the town centre. On the plus side the town does boast a large lift ...  Read the complete review
