  1. A house through time: 10 St Michael’s Road, Northampton. The story of a terraced house in Northampton, England. Who lived and worked there, and its connections with the early Labour movement. edintone.com/10-st-michaels-ro #northampton #genealogy #familyhistory #househistory #histodons @histodons @genealogy

  2. Over the last week we've set the first step in setting up the local Land Rover Owners Club Salland. This, after I haven't been a member of a club like this, since we've moved back from #Northampton over twenty years ago! As their wasn't one locally and the national one is not like the down to earth ones, I recall from the UK, I felt, that I had to start one myself:

  4. theconversation.com/new-eviden. The #tragedy of Violet Gibson, apart from her failure to kill #Mussolini, is that she spent 29 years incarcerated in St Andrew's Psychiatric #Hospital in #Northampton when there was nothing wrong with her, & she was denied her requests for a #Requiem #Mass & burial in a #Catholic #cemetery by her #family.

  5. Just saw three parakeets in #Northampton. Are they new to the area or am I unobservant?

  6. RE: beige.party/@quadrivial/116760

    What a surprisingly pleasant way to celebrate #Bloomsday - reading #Northampton's #Joyce! But of that other Irish, the anglican reactionary, we shall speak no more... It's not just #Moore who'd cringe at the thought.

  7. Millions of passengers have travelled on #London Northwestern Railway’s (LNR) Class 730/2 Aventra trains during their first year in service. Built by Alstom at its Derby Litchurch Lane Works, the 36 five-car electric #trains entered service in June 2025 and have increased capacity on routes to and from London Euston by 20%.

    The fleet’s rollout, completed this year, has been linked to a 20% rise in customer satisfaction on LNR’s Trent Valley Line and a 10% increase on services between #Northampton and London. The trains offer significantly more seating than the older Class 350 units they are replacing.

    LNR says the introduction of the fleet has enabled an extra 42,000 seats a week on services to and from Euston. The project has also received industry recognition, contributing to LNR being named Train Operator of the Year at the 2026 Rail Business Awards.
