Northampton
I lived near Northampton for many years, and worked in the town. It's one of
those places that you have to get to know to really appreciate. There are many
shops and businesses tucked away in side streets that take you time to discover.
An excellent market and a great theatre - two theatres actually but the Royal is a
super old Victorian "pit".
An unused postcard of the Drapery from the early 20th Century.
The Drapery around 1910. (This image was emailed to us from Australia and is
not as clear as we would like - sorry !)

No date for this old postcard of South Bridge and boats on the Nene.
