About

The Irchester, Wollaston and Bozeat area lies in the Nene Valley of North Northamptonshire. The landscape is characterised by a mix of agricultural land, small woodland areas, and the settlements themselves, which are connected by the A509 road. The River Nene and the Grand Union Canal pass through the broader valley, influencing the local geography. The area is primarily residential, with historical roots in the boot and shoe industry, a legacy still evident in some local architecture.

Irchester Country Park, a large woodland and grassland space on the site of former ironstone quarries, is a significant local feature. The park offers extensive walking trails and includes a narrow-gauge railway. The area maintains a distinct separation between its villages, each with its own centre, surrounded by working farmland. The former ironstone workings have created a specific topography of ridges and lakes within the parkland setting.
