Hellidon is a small, rural village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, England, lying a few miles north‑east of Daventry. Perched on higher ground it offers wide views across open Northamptonshire countryside and is characterised by stone and brick cottages, hedged lanes and a scattering of farms that reflect its agricultural setting.
Historically the village retains a compact core of older, often listed buildings and a parish church, while local life is quietly social with a village hall, occasional fetes and active volunteer groups. The economy remains rooted in farming alongside residents who commute to nearby towns, and the surrounding lanes and footpaths make Hellidon popular with walkers and anyone seeking a peaceful rural community with visible traces of its past.
