Map of the UK

Welton is a small village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, England, set in rolling agricultural countryside between Daventry and Northampton. Its origins stretch back to the medieval period and the village still shows a traditional plan of narrow lanes, stone and brick cottages and a historic parish church, giving a strong sense of continuity with the past.

Local life is rooted in farming alongside a modest commuter population who travel to nearby towns; community activity centres on a village hall, pub and occasional local events, and residents value the wide rural views and relative tranquillity while remaining within easy reach of services and transport links in the surrounding market towns.
