Earls Barton is an electoral ward in North Northamptonshire, England, centred on the large village of the same name between Wellingborough and Northampton and now administered within the unitary authority created in 2021.
It is best known for the striking Anglo‑Saxon tower of St Mary the Virgin, regarded as one of the finer examples of early medieval church architecture, and for a conservation area with a number of listed buildings. Historically the locality had a strong boot‑ and shoe‑making tradition; today the ward combines light industry and independent shops with a largely residential, commuter population and an active community life centred on clubs, schools and local events.
