About

Daventry Central encompasses the historic core of this Northamptonshire market town. The area is defined by the Market Square, a traditional open space that has hosted trading for centuries. Surrounding streets like High Street and Sheaf Street contain a mix of independent retailers and national chain stores. The area's layout reflects its medieval origins, with narrow lanes branching from the main thoroughfares.

The Parish Church of Holy Cross, with its distinctive spire, is a central landmark. Local civic functions are housed in the early 20th-century Daventry Town Council building. A notable feature is the subterranean course of the River Leam, which flows beneath parts of the town centre before emerging near the country park. Residential streets with Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing extend from the commercial heart.
