Old Stratford is a small village in West Northamptonshire, England, sitting beside the River Great Ouse and alongside the old Roman route of Watling Street (the A5). It lies opposite Stony Stratford on the other side of the river and close to the border with Buckinghamshire, enjoying straightforward road links to Milton Keynes, Northampton and the M1.
The settlement has a quietly historic feel, reflecting its roots as a riverside crossing and roadside stopping place, and today is largely residential with a strong village community, a pub and a village hall. Residents benefit from riverside walks and the amenities and market-town character of nearby Stony Stratford, while many people commute to nearby centres for work.
