Cold Higham is a small rural parish in West Northamptonshire, England, set on rolling countryside a few miles south of Towcester and near the line of the A5 (the old Watling Street). Perched on higher ground, the parish enjoys views across the Nene valley and is made up of a scattering of hamlets, farms and historic cottages, with a medieval parish church and several listed buildings that hint at a long local history.
Community life is quiet and village-focused, centred on the church and village hall, and the local economy remains largely agricultural alongside residents who commute to nearby towns such as Northampton and Milton Keynes. Being within easy reach of Silverstone and main road links means the parish combines a strongly rural character with practical access to services, jobs and occasional tourism.
