Map of the UK

Orlingbury is a small rural village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, England, set in the rolling, arable landscape of the Midlands. The settlement is compact, surrounded by farmland, hedgerows and traces of historic ridge-and-furrow earthworks; it sits roughly between the market towns of Wellingborough and Kettering, which many residents use for shops and services.

Historically the village has medieval roots and retains a traditional parish church and several older, listed dwellings and a small country house, giving it a quiet historic character. The local economy is still largely agricultural with a number of commuters to nearby towns; socially it remains a close-knit community centred on the village hall, occasional fĂȘtes and walking routes through the Northamptonshire countryside.
