A Little History of Braunston

Having a little knowledge of the area in which you live, or of where you intend to move, can provide an enormous sense of psychological wellbeing.  Homes and their locality are an important part of what makes us who we are.

Braunston is a picturesque village on the western edge of Northamptonshire close to the Warwickshire border.  Located on a high ridge, the village affords wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.

The impressive spire of All Saints’ Church in Braunston can be seen from miles around and is a beacon to travellers from both road and the Grand Union and Oxford canals.

The village once relied on trade from the canals which carried goods between London and the Midlands. Braunston canal tunnel would have once seen boatmen lying on their backs on the decks of the barges pushing with their feet against the roof of the tunnel to propel the boats for over a mile.

These waterways still play an important role in the village, albeit on a more recreational basis. Braunston boatyard / marina which was original built as the waterway’s depot lies at the crossroads of the Grand Union and Oxford canals.  Today the marina is a thriving centre for boating enthusiasts and plays host to an annual narrowboat rally. The elegant Horsley Iron Works twin cast iron bridge with low elliptical arches straddles the triangular junction of the Grand Union and Oxford canals and is testimony to the ability to merge functional structures with beautiful design.

The village offers a unique combination of rural charm and modern amenities. It is located close to the M1 motorway, making it easy for commuters to get into London or other major cities. There are also excellent transport links with nearby towns such as Daventry, Northampton and Rugby.
