Towcester – A Brief Description
The historic market town of Towcester, originally known as Lactordorum, is the oldest town in the County where Romans would have once marched along Watling Street. With literary fame from the Saracens Head of Dickens’s Pickwick Papers, ancient monuments such as Bury Mount Motte, and many fine buildings including the 15th century Chantry House, Towcester really does have a wealth of history spanning many periods.
With the impressive Moat Lane Regeneration project now complete this Roman market town boasts modern facilities in an historic setting all with the delightful River Tove meandering close by. The main road through Towcester is also due to be freed up from traffic on completion of the Towcester Relief Road.
The energetic Watling Street runs through the centre of Towcester where a wide range of lively and independent boutique shops, cafes and restaurants can be found. There are also larger supermarkets, a post office and even a monthly farmers market.
Towcester is conveniently situated just a 20-minute drive from Milton Keynes with further shops and restaurants as well as Milton Keynes Central Railway with direct and frequent trains to London Euston.
There is a large leisure centre which has an excellent range of facilities for all ages and abilities including a 25m swimming pool, 3G outdoor pitches, a comprehensive fitness suite and large sports hall.
Schooling is well provided for with two Primary Schools and Sponne Secondary school which has an ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted report.

Historic Carpenters’ Marks Found at a Georgian Mill House, Brackley
While surveying a late eighteenth-century mill house in Brackley, we uncovered original carpenters’ marks on the roof trusses — Roman numerals cut into the oak that reveal how Georgian roof frames were set out, assembled, and raised with remarkable accuracy.
Dry Rot in Action
During a recent survey of a Grade II Listed property, we encountered an active outbreak of dry rot within the basement. The fungus had formed extensive mycelium and a distinct rhizomorph “feeding strand” between timber stacks — a striking demonstration of how opportunistic and dynamic timber-decay fungi can be when the conditions are right.
