Quiet Northamptonshire village with a central green next to an imposing church. Pleasant place to sit and have lunch.

Tucked just behind the shops on Chantry lane, the Gothic Medieval church of St Lawrence provides an area of calm reflection away from the bustle of town. The ancient grounds (dating back to at least 921 AD) are well maintained and contain a number of old trees, the Yew being especially old. For more detailed information and opening/service times etc, visit: http://www.tovebenefice.org.uk/st-lawrence-churchyard/

Be on the lookout for muntjack deer! I have seen these here a couple of times, mainly towards the main road end of the park, near the river banks in the taller shrubs and grasses.

Lovely quiet spot just off Towcesters main Street and not far from the central shops. well maintained paths and lots of grassed areas make it a nice place to get away from the centre of Towcester.

Nestled behind the main shopping street in Towcester is this unassuming mound of historic earth. Now turned into a small park area with a spiral path to the top you can get views over the rooftops of the town centre. Bury Mount and Water Meadows park (just a couple of minutes North East by bike), won the restoration category at the Museums and Heritage Awards 2011 beating Westminister Abbey which came second. The mount is the restored remains of what is thought to be a 12th century motte and bailey fortification.
