Lodge Farm

Lodge Farm is a residential area to the north of Northampton town centre in West Northamptonshire. The neighbourhood takes its name from the farm that once occupied the site and was developed mainly in the mid-20th century as a mix of terraced houses, semi-detached homes and a number of council-built blocks. Local provision includes a primary school, a parade of shops and a community centre that schedules youth and adult activities. Pockets of grass and sports pitches are woven into the street pattern and provide space for football, informal play and dog walking.

Transport links are focused on regular bus services that run into the town centre and onto the railway station, making commuting and shopping straightforward. Everyday life in Lodge Farm revolves around small businesses, clubs that use the pitches and the community hub that hosts meetings and classes. Facilities for cyclists and short walking routes connect residents to nearby retail areas and secondary schools without crossing the town’s main commercial streets.
