Our Autumn Lecture will be on Saturday 10th October 2026, starting at 3 pm, and will be held in Great Houghton Village Hall, Leys Lane, Great Houghton, NN4 0AN. Deborah Hayter, the Chair of the Society, will have much to tell us about the deserted villages of the county.
There are at least 80 deserted villages in Northamptonshire. What really happened to them and why did they disappear or shrink so drastically? Come along and find some reliable answers.
Members and guests are very welcome to attend. The lecture will be followed by tea at 4 pm. For catering purposes, we need to know in advance how many will be present, so if you will be attending, please send an email by 30th September to:
