Isham is a small village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, in the county of Northamptonshire, lying a few miles north of Kettering. Set in gently rolling agricultural countryside, it retains a compact centre of stone and brick cottages clustered around a medieval church, with a pub, village hall and primary school serving a mixed rural and commuter population.
The village has medieval roots and several historic buildings of local interest; its economy remains largely shaped by farming alongside residents who commute to nearby towns or to London by rail. Community life is active for a settlement of its size, with village clubs, seasonal fetes and a cricket team helping to sustain a strong local identity under the unitary authority of North Northamptonshire.
