Kingsthorpe

Kingsthorpe is a characterful village now a suburb of Northampton situated to the north-west of the centre, situated on the river Nene. Kingsthorpe became part of the borough of Northampton in 1900. Despite incorporation into the town, standing on the village green you get a still sense of the original rural setting, overlooked by the church and pretty cottages.
