Brigstock is a compact, historic village in North Northamptonshire, England, set on the edge of the remnants of the old Royal hunting ground of Rockingham Forest. It has a well-preserved medieval core with timber-framed and brick cottages clustered around a green and ponds, and is notable for its medieval St Andrew's Church and other listed buildings that give the village a strong sense of continuity and charm.

Brigstock is popular with walkers and anyone interested in village history, conservation and the landscape legacy of the old forest.
