Location:
Equestrian Way is located at the top of a hill to the North-West of Weedon village within walking distance of local amenities. As the name suggests, Equestrian Way was once the site of a former Cavalry School connected to the nearby Royal Ordnance Survey Depot. The site was allegedly chosen because of Weedon’s central location in the heart of England and being the furthest point from the sea it would form a safe retreat for George III and his family in the event of a Napoleonic French invasion. All that remains of the illustrious Cavalry School is a set of cast iron Tethering Posts; however, the majority of the Ordnance Survey Depot still stands today and now forms a unique space offering a selection of artisan workshops, offices, studios, antique stores, book shops, and even has a brewery that holds events with local food vendors every weekend.
Originally known as Weedon-Bec this historic village lies close to the Roman Watling Street where it crosses the river Nene. The Grand Union canal also passes through the village providing tranquil waterside walks.
Nestled between the canal and railway line is the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. A church that was largely rebuilt in the early 19th century, but which still retains its fine and embattled tower from the 12th century.
Weedon is also located close to the M1 motorway, making for easy for commuters to reach London or other major cities. There are also excellent transport links with nearby towns such as Daventry, Towcester, Northampton and Rugby.
With green spaces, waterways, and good local amenities including a primary school, doctors surgery, shops, pubs and restaurants; for those looking for a village location with superb facilities, Weedon is the perfect location.
