Nestling in Northamptonshire's green and pleasant countryside, two miles to the south of Daventry, is the parish and village of Newnham. This picturesque village has a variety of house styles, approaching 250 in number, to suit most tastes, and is a popular yet sedate location to live. It's services include a primary school, 'The Romer Arms' Public House and Restaurant, and The Village Hall. Villagers can make the short journey to the neighbouring market town of Daventry where there are senior schools, leisure facilities, shops and services. On Tuesdays and Fridays in The High Street, there is a market with covered stalls, and on the first Saturday of each month there is a Farmers Market. This site is designed to provide information for parishioners and also offer a contact point or forum for matters of interest and concern. We are happy to include any village or parish related photographs or news items which you may send via e-mail. If you are a first time visitor to this site or you are returning, your comments would be appreciated. Enjoy this site and our parish.

Towcester Court Open Day On June the 26th
Towcester Justices and the Emergency Service are
getting together to give local people a genuine insight into how the
local Criminal Justice System and Emergency Services deal with a serious
road traffic accident. They will see at first hand what really happens
on their behalf, week by week in the immediate locality. At 10:30 in front of Towcester fire station the
Emergency Services will attend a mock incident which involves a badly
crashed car. Occupants of the car will be cut out by the Fire Brigade,
the injured treated and the Police investigate the circumstances leading
up to the crash. Those investigations reveal that it appears that the
law has been broken by the driver. Members of the public are invited to
sit-in on the resulting Court Appearance and sentencing of the driver at
11:15am in the Court House. Both elements of this scenario will be
repeated at 1:30pm and 2:15 respectively. There will also be the
opportunity to learn more about a number of other Agencies, such as the
Crown Prosecution Service, Probation, as well as the Police, Fire &
Rescue, Ambulance and the Magistracy. Throughout the day representatives
of those organisations will be on hand to talk with, demonstrate to,
answer questions, whatever individuals might want to explore. In addition why not take the opportunity to
experience what it’s like to occupy a cell, or you may prefer to be
breathalysed, have your fingerprints taken, sit in a prison van, maybe a
fire engine or examine a police car.
