Wellingborough is a market town and borough in Northamptonshire, England, situated 11 miles (18km) from the county town of Northampton. The town is situated on the north side of the River Nene, most of the older town is sited on the flanks of the hills above the river's current flood plain. Due to frequent flooding by the River Nene, the town was mostly built above the current level of the flood plain. Originally named "Wendelingburgh", the settlement was established in the Saxon period and is mentioned in the Domesday Book under the name of "Wendelburie". The town was granted a royal market charter in 1201, by King John of England.
As of 2011 the census states the borough has a population of 75,400, which the town itself accounts for 49,087. The town of Wellingborough is governed by The Borough Council of Wellingborough, with their office located in the town centre. The town is twinned with Niort in France, and with Wittlich in Germany.
Opened as a Borstal in 1963, Wellingborough continued to hold Young Offenders until 1990, when it was re-rolled as Category C Training Prison for male adults.
In December 2003, an inspection report from Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Prisons stated that Wellingborough was not meeting the criteria for its role as a training prison. Inspectors found that only half the prisoners were working or in education, with the other half locked up for extended periods of time. The report also noted that the prison had an out of date race relations policy. However, inspectors also highlighted Wellingborough's good overall safety record, as 80% of inmates reported that they felt safe and 75% reported that staff treated them with respect. Wellingborough was also praised for its induction programme and reception procedures.
Wellingborough's earliest years were left-leaning. Since the 1964 the seat has kept on producing examples of bellwether results and rarely showed itself to be safe for more than one government term. Departing from this are two years where the result has defied the most common result nationwide, by leaning towards the Conservative Party, in 1974 (twice) and in 2005.
The lack of other senior positions is assisted by no majority having been gained by the winner which is in national terms generally shown to be insurmountable, see marginal seat.
The Borough Council have approved major building work to the East of the main town of Wellingborough as part of the government's 'Milton Keynes and South Midlands plan'. The area called 'Stanton Cross' will increase the size of the town by 30%.
Covering an area of 2,364 square kilometres (913 sq mi), Northamptonshire is landlocked between eight other counties: Warwickshire to the west, Leicestershire and Rutland to the north, Cambridgeshire to the east, Bedfordshire to the south-east, Buckinghamshire to the south, Oxfordshire to the south-west and Lincolnshire to the north-east – England's shortest county boundary at 19 metres (62ft). Northamptonshire is the southernmost county in the East Midlands region.
The constituency consisted of the historic county of Northamptonshire. Although the county contained a number of parliamentary boroughs, each of which elected one or two MPs in its own right for parts of the period when Northamptonshire was a constituency, these areas were not excluded from the county constituency. Owning freehold property of the required value, within such boroughs, could confer a vote at the county election. (After 1832, only non-resident owners of forty shilling freeholds situated in borough seats could qualify for a county vote on the basis of that property.)
Wellingborough Town Tour by Open Top Bus July 2022
It is the 3rd of July 2022 and the weather is extremely hot.
The 794 bus preservation group are holding the 9th annual bus rally at Wellingborough Museum. took me on an open-top tour bus ride around Wellingborough to the area which has majority of my attention. The Wellingborough Locomotive Roundhouse and the destroyed 65ft turn-table.
The first half of the video the sound has corrupted so I have used my latest selection from The Moodshaper (@JamieBrady) collection. The Track is called "Feel" and I hope you like it as much as I do.

Wellingborough Lakes is changing - November 2022 update
I head down to Wellingborough lakes to send the drone up to have a nosie on the huge Stanton Cross development project which will be the biggest change to our lakes area since the gravel extraction in the 70's. Land destroyed for housing and new roads. In my personal opinion I don't like this change but I'm not here to give you that opinion. I'm here to explain to you all and record the change for future generations to see.

Young Edward and I decided to re-film the Croyland Zoo Park since many changes to the park have occurred within the last year. New Playground equipment, Animal statues, pathways plus the extra knowledge I have gained from the legendary locals of Wellingborough.
The park was owned by Mr Stevens and was opened in 1943 with government backing as to boost moral during the second world war.

This is Wellingborough Croyland Gardens/Zoo Park Then and Now 2021
Young Edward and I decided to re-film the Croyland Zoo Park since many changes to the park have occurred within the last year. New Playground equipment, Animal statues, pathways plus the extra knowledge I have gained from the legendary locals of Wellingborough.
The park was owned by Mr Stevens and was opened in 1943 with government backing as to boost moral during the second world war. Sadly The zoo closed in 1970 but the park today is full of reminders of a wonderful place that once existed right here, on the grounds of Croyland Abbey in the center of Wellingborough.
This Video is inspired by Wellingborough Museum and a big thank you to Robert Wharton for his teachings and pictures. Wellingborough Museum has a grand exhibit on the old Zoo Park which is on display (Highly Recommended).
