Great Easton, The Village c.1960

More about this scene
Great Easton lies in the south-east corner of the county, to the south of Eye Brook Reservoir, and to the north of industrial Corby, on the very edge of the Welland Valley. In an area of architectural gems (Rockingham Castle, Lyddington Bede House and Stoke Dry parish church), the village has a number of good ironstone houses of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries arranged around two greens. The photograph, looking north towards Stockerston, focuses on the war memorial cross which is unhappily 'protected' by standard hairgrip railings.
