Location

Clay Coton, situated within the Daventry district of Northamptonshire, is a quaint village characterized by its historical significance and serene ambiance. The nearest major town, Rugby in Warwickshire, is approximately 7 miles (11.3 km) away by road, boasting a high-speed Virgin train service to London's Euston station in a mere 47 minutes.
The village landscape is prominently graced by the medieval former church of St. Andrew, dating back to 1340. Though restored by Edmund Francis Law in 1866, the church experienced a period of disuse in the 1950s before being meticulously renovated into a private residence around 2000.
Previously accommodating the 'Fox and Hounds,' a public house renowned for its folk music nights and cask ales, the village underwent changes in 2002 when the establishment was renamed 'The Fox' and later transformed into a private dwelling.

Despite its idyllic rural setting, Clay Coton offers swift access to extensive road networks, including the M1, M6, and A14. Junior schooling is conveniently available in nearby Yelvertoft or Crick, with Crick further providing a broader range of shopping amenities and public houses. For senior education, residents have access to reputable institutions such as Guilsborough School, along with outstanding private schools like Bilton Grange, Spratton Hall, and Rugby School.
