Welcome to Northamptonshire — England’s shoe‑making county, where market towns meet racing circuits and the M1 keeps Northampton and Milton Keynes firmly connected. With around 750,000 residents who know the shortcut past Silverstone better than any sat‑nav, Northamptonshire blends rural calm with industrial heritage.

Schools That Actually Impress

Northampton School for Boys, Wellingborough School, and Oundle School (the independent heavyweight) all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.

Economy With a Balance

Northamptonshire’s economy mixes logistics, motorsport, and manufacturing with growing service and tech hubs in Northampton and Kettering. Add in commuters heading to London and Birmingham, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.

Things to Do (Besides Timing the M1 Traffic)

• Silverstone Circuit – home of British motorsport and Formula One thrills.

• Althorp House – stately home with royal connections.

• Local favourites – Northampton Saints for rugby buzz, Rushden Lakes for shopping, and countryside walks for fresh air and photo ops.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t fix the M1 bottleneck, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

• Full packing services

• Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than traffic at Junction 15)

• Local, national, European & overseas moves (because sometimes Northamptonshire is just a stepping stone to New Orleans)
