Thorpe Malsor is a small rural village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, England, a few miles from Kettering and within easy reach of Market Harborough. Set amid rolling arable fields and hedged lanes typical of the county, the settlement is characterised by a tight cluster of stone cottages, farmsteads and a modest country house that reflect its long agricultural roots.
Its history reaches back into the medieval period and the landscape still shows traditional field patterns; like much of this part of the county it sits close to areas of former ironstone working which influenced local employment in the 19th and 20th centuries. Today the parish remains largely agricultural with a small, close-knit community, while walkers and visitors enjoy quiet lanes, public footpaths and the peaceful feel of rural Northamptonshire life.
