The ward covers the large village of Moulton, set a few miles east of Northampton in West Northamptonshire, England. It sits amid rolling Northamptonshire countryside and includes a conservation area with a medieval parish church and a mix of Georgian and Victorian cottages alongside more recent housing developments.
Locally the economy still has agricultural roots but education plays a big part, with the land‑based Moulton College and the village secondary Moulton School prominent employers and community hubs. A lively village scene of clubs, sports teams, annual events, pubs and independent shops helps retain a strong social fabric, even as proximity to Northampton and good road links have made it increasingly popular with commuters.
