Thinking of Moving to Everdon?

Learn a little about this quintessentially English village

Having a little knowledge of the area in which you live, or of where you intend to move, can provide an enormous sense of psychological wellbeing.  Homes and their locality are an important part of what makes us who we are. An understanding of the history of our hometowns can instil a sense of belonging and pride.

The small village of Everdon has grown within a valley surrounded by rolling Northamptonshire countryside. Having the beautiful Woodlands of Mantles Heath and Everdon Stubbs nearby, the village attracts visitors from many miles away who come each spring to see the bluebells in all their glory.

The village has a deep history and is mentioned in a charter dated AD 944.  At the time of the doomsday book (1086) Everdon belonged to the Bishop of Bayeaux and later became the property of the Benedictine Abbey of Bernay in the Eure département of Normandy.

The church of St Mary, which dates back to the fourteenth century, and which has historical links to the Benedictine Abbey Bernay Abbey and Eton College, holds services of Holy Communion twice a month.   Some claim it was this church, and not the church of St Giles in Stoke Poges which inspired Thomas Gray’s famous ‘Elegy Written in an English Churchyard’.  Whatever the reality, the protagonists in this debate have been able to maintain their respective positions without disturbing the peace of the residents of Everdon.

The old school at Everdon is now an outdoor learning centre providing environmental activities for groups of children.

Rather more well-known than the village is the area of approximately 100 acres about a mile away belonging to the Woodland Trust, known as Everdon Stubbs.  It was from here that the village acquired its name, which was Wild Boars Hill in old English.  This charming beauty spot is popular with visitors throughout the year, and especially when the bluebells are in full bloom.

Everdon and the neighbouring hamlet of Little Everdon will appeal to house hunters seeking a quiet rural existence without having to drive for more than a few minutes to access most of the necessities of modern life.
