Northampton is the county town of Northamptonshire in the East Midlands of England. It lies on the River Nene, about 67 miles north-west of London and 50 miles south-east of Birmingham.
Northampton rose to national significance with the establishment of Northampton Castle, which was an occasional royal residence and regularly hosted the Parliament of England. Medieval Northampton had many churches, monasteries and the University of Northampton, which were all enclosed by the town walls. It was granted its first town charter by King Richard I in 1189 and its first mayor was appointed by King John in 1215. The town is also the site of two medieval battles; the Battle of Northampton (1264) and the second in 1460.
Northampton's royal connection languished in the modern period; the town supported Parliament (the Roundheads) in the English Civil War, which culminated in King Charles II ordering the destruction of the town walls and most of the castle. The town also suffered the Great Fire of Northampton (1675) which destroyed most of the town. It was soon rebuilt and grew rapidly with the industrial development of the 18th century. Northampton continued to grow following the creation of the Grand Union Canal and the arrival of the railways in the 19th century, becoming an industrial centre for footwear and leather manufacture.
After the World Wars, Northampton's growth was limited until it was designated as a New Town in 1968, accelerating development in the town. Northampton unsuccessfully applied for unitary status in 1996 and city status in 2000; the town continues to expand with many areas undergoing urban renewal.

Asthall Manor, Asthall, The Mitfords Beloved First House
Curiously The Mitfords did not go to Asthall Church but rather the one in Swinbrook as Lord Redesdale their father felt he could control the sermons easier. One other curiosity with Asthall Manor is that the girls had to share bedrooms as there were insufficient to go round one of the reasons he had a new house built. Deborah (Debo) the Dowager Lady Devonshire the youngest sister has just sadly dies (sept 2014) so eyewitness memories of this period are now lost.

Exploring Irchester country park
So we went to check out Irchester country park last weekend and it didn't disappoint. It was a really fun adventure and not like any other country parks we have been to so far. This place is more like huge forest with lots of different paths to take. As you will see in this video we took some hard routes by leaving the normal path ways and venturing deep into the forest. Enjoy!
