    Whilst there are opportunities to wild camp along the Nene and the commercial company Canoe 2 www.canoe2.co.uk can arrange camping for you as part of a package holiday, these are places that you can use to plan your own canoe-camping trip down the Nene. Being able to park a car securely or leave it securely while you paddle down to it are important to canoeists and some, but not all, venues provide this facility. If you are happy to leave a car in a car park then please also check out my list of parking spots with access to the river. Unless I become geographically challenged whilst writing, everything should be in a downstream order from Northampton. This list is only as good as the replies I’ve had to emails and phone calls so I’m grateful for those companies and individuals who took the time to do so. If you come across other venues please message me and we can share them with other paddlers. Lastly, paid up members of Friends of the River Nene may camp on some, but again, not all, of their moorings subject to some common sense condition such as not getting in the way of bigger craft, no fires, take rubbish away etc - none of these moorings have facilities or water supplies......check with the committee if unsure. ===================================================================== Billing Aquadrome I did not receive a reply from this company but it’s a very famous local venue which also makes the news regularly for flooding! The camping page of their website https://www.billingaquadrome.com/holidays/camping/ makes mention of riverside pitches.

  • Capability Brown at Castle Ashby
    Capability Brown at Castle Ashby Capability Brown Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown (1716-1783) was born in the Northumberland village of Kirkharle, and went on to popularise the English landscape style, advising on over 250 large country estates throughout England and Wales. Formal gardens gave way to naturalistic parkland of trees, expanses of water and rolling grass. He also designed great houses, churches and garden buildings, and was skilled in engineering, especially with water. This guide was created as part of a festival celebrating the 300th Aerial view of the landscape at Castle Ashby © Northamptonshire Gardens Trust anniversary of his birth. Find out more about the man and his work In 1760 Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown prepared a ‘great General Plan’ for the at capabilitybrown.org/ parkland at Castle Ashby for Charles, 7th Earl of Northampton. He signed research a contract for work to start on the 10,000 acre estate, but he and his wife Portrait of Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, died in Italy in 1763, so never saw the work completed. c.1770-75, by Richard Cosway (17421821)/Private Collection/ The estate has been in the Compton family since 1512. In 1574 Henry Compton Bridgeman Images. built the fine Elizabethan house in the shape of an E to celebrate the coronation of Queen Elizabeth I. Brown’s work included restoring the south avenue of trees and re-levelling the ground around the house to improve the views He carefully selected, planted and felled trees to create vistas towards the Temple Menagerie, the new Park Pond. A curving ha-ha (sunken wall and ditch) was created to protect the pleasure garden from grazing animals, the fishponds were made into lakes, with a dam and cascade, and a serpentine carriage drive crossed them to create an impressive approach to the house.

  • Earls Barton Conservation Area Character Appraisal
    EARLS BARTON CONSERVATION AREA CHARACTER APPRAISAL 1. ORIGINS AND DEVELOPMENT 1.1 Earls Barton lies 3½ miles south west of Wellingborough and 6½ miles east north east of Northampton, but set well back (at just over half a mile to the south) from the old road linking these two larger towns. 1.2 Settlement in the central part of Northamptonshire is mostly restricted to the margins of the main valleys of the Nene, Welland and Ise, often on hill tops and spurs well above the floodplains. In common with other villages on either side of the Nene such as Grendon, Cogenhoe, Wollaston and Billing, Earls Barton is perched on a spur of land projecting above the prevailing contours which rise from the river (42m AOD) across extensive ground terraces and then more steeply over outcrops of Upper Lias Clay to a flat-topped ridge of sand and limestone at approximately 100m AOD. (RCHME, 1979). An additional underlying factor in the genesis of the settlement pattern is the customary availability of springs between the 80 and 90 metre contours (AOD), and indeed much of the historic centre of Earls Barton lies within this range. 1.3 However, the village’s unique local topographical feature (with the possible exception of Wollaston castle mount on the other side of the Nene Valley), and clearly its historical raison d’être, is the Scheduled Ancient Monument know as Berry Mount.1 Whereas Victoria County History2 speculates that the landform is “apparently a mote castle”, the RCHME analysis of 1979 suggest that this may not be the case, pointing out that “the relationship between mound and ditch is unusual, especially on the east side where the ditch appears to be turning south- east on an alignment different from the curve of the mound.
