Little Harrowden is a small, largely rural parish a few miles north‑east of Wellingborough in North Northamptonshire. It sits amongst hedgerow‑lined lanes and arable fields and retains a compact historic core centred on its parish church, with a scattering of listed buildings and farmsteads that hint at a medieval and post‑medieval past. The landscape affords pleasant countryside views while being close enough to larger towns for everyday services.
Locally the economy is still influenced by agriculture but the village also functions as a commuter catchment for Wellingborough, Northampton and routes into London, so you’ll find a mix of long‑standing families and newer residents. Community life is centred on village events, the parish council and small local groups, with a village hall and social venues providing the usual calendar of fetes, clubs and informal gatherings.
