Naseby sits on high ground in West Northamptonshire, England, surrounded by rolling farmland close to the Leicestershire border and within easy reach of Daventry, Northampton and Market Harborough. The village occupies an open ridge with wide views across arable fields and pastures; its economy is traditionally agricultural but now includes small local businesses and commuters who travel to nearby towns.
Naseby is best known for the mid-17th-century Battle of Naseby (1645), a decisive Parliamentarian victory, and the battlefield itself is still readable in the landscape and marked by a monument and interpretation centre that attract history enthusiasts. The village retains a compact, community-minded feel with a village hall, pub and regular local events, making it both a point of historic interest and a living rural community.
