Such was their enthusiasm that the work has expanded into looking at other aspects, notably the Roll of Honour of Old Boys of Helmdon School Who Served in the First World War. First published in 2014, this 2016 update includes newly discovered facts and stories. The most relevant, up-to-date information available has been put together and can be printed off as a booklet. It is to be hoped that it will not only add to the history of Helmdon but that it will go some way to honour the great sacrifice made by those village servicemen. The authors apologise that some entries do not contain as much detail as others; available records are not always fruitful.

With the rise of rural house prices in recent years and the lack of available properties, local people are being forced to move away from their community in order to find housing they can afford. Daventry District has a growing population, to add to this the structure and size of households is also changing. When new households are formed or circumstances change, people may find their home unsuitable and it is therefore important that there is an adequate amount of housing to accommodate their needs. The provision of affordable housing is high on Daventry District Council’s agenda, as part of our vision to build a better district it is prioritised under the objective: “Healthy, Safe and Strong Communities and Individuals”. To this end the Council has been undertaking a rolling programme of affordable housing provision, which is based on robust evidence of housing need and local information – provided by Housing Needs Surveys. This report summarises the findings of the Housing Needs Survey in Canons Ashby, undertaken in October/November 2011. Strategic and Planning Context Daventry District Council has a number of policies and strategies to help deliver housing in both planning policy and housing strategy terms.

  • The Story of the Brackley Morris Men a Traditional Northamptonshire Morris Side
    The Story of the Brackley Morris Men A Traditional Northamptonshire Morris Side 10. The August Summer Tour - ‘A good pair of boots’ Pre 1914 According to Fred Hamer, writing in 1955, the Brackley side changed its annual outing (at some date in the late 1800s, unspecified) from Whitsuntide to the August bank holiday week. (15) The photo here was taken on August bank holiday, Monday 4th Aug 1913. Keith Chandler, in his 1985 lecture quoted an article in the Banbury Guardian from 1950 contributed by Mr H Watkinson stating that: ‘Until the outbreak of the first world war, the annual procedure of the troupe was to commence a tour of Brackley, Buckingham, Banbury, Towcester and all the intervening villages, on August bank holiday, and continue throughout the week. It was undoubtedly an enjoyable and profitable holiday and a pleasant spectacle for the people of the countryside. Their only transport a good pair of boots and a delight in walking…’ (5). The revival of the tours Tour locations With the establishment of the modern side in 1971, the tradition of summer 1972 Water Stratford tours was revived. This involved finding a field for camping, not too far from 1973 Great Horwood 1974 Castlethorpe a pub. Prior to the tour, posters were printed in black and white, and col- 1975 Whittlebury oured in by hand. The routine was soon established of arriving on Friday 1976 Stoneleigh evening to set up camp, including stores tent and toilet tent, followed by a 1977 Priors Marston camp meal and then a session in the local pub.

    FLEET FARM BARNS SULGRAVE I OX17 2SG FLEET FARM BARNS We are delighted to offer this select development of just four individually designed new-build barns, set on the edge of the historic village of Sulgrave, Northamptonshire.

The village has an unusual layout, with two streets running roughly parallel and joined in a figure of eight. In three areas of the village are traces of former medieval buildings. Half a mile southeast of the village is a pillow mound which, houses the remains of a Norman artificial warren for farming rabbits. The most notable addition to the village is Sulgrave Manor. Built in the mid-1500’s by George Washington’s five times great-grandfather it retains it’s original Tudor features with later additions added by John Hodges in the 1700’s. Today the Manor is a popular wedding venue. The village has a strong community with a superb country pub and restaurant a short walk from the site as well as parish church, village shop and post office which are fully utilised by the village residents. More extensive retail, commercial and amenity facilities are located a short distance away either north or south on the M40 motorway with the closest major shopping and entertainment centre within a twenty minutes drive.
