Trusted Kitchen Worktop Installers in Daventry

Daventry Worktop Information

Daventry is a market town in Northamptonshire, about 12 miles west of Northampton and 16 miles south-east of Coventry, in the NN11 postcode. The town is set on a hill in the Northamptonshire uplands and has a Georgian and Victorian market town character around the High Street. Daventry is perhaps most widely known for the BBC Empire Service shortwave transmitter which broadcast from the Daventry transmitting station from 1925 to 1992, making Daventry an internationally known place name for radio listeners worldwide. The station used the call sign GBR and the transmitter mast was one of the tallest structures in Britain at the time of its construction. The M1 junction 16 and the A45 give the town good road access to the Midlands motorway network. The town also serves as a logistics and distribution hub, with major warehousing operations in the outer NN11 area. Daventry Country Park, created from a reservoir, provides recreational green space on the edge of the town. Average house prices in NN11 run modestly below the national average.

Types of Materials found in Daventry

The Victorian and Edwardian properties in the older town streets and the post-war and newer development housing across NN11 form the mainstream quartz market. These are practical Northamptonshire family homes where quartz suits the kitchen proportions without maintenance. Installed prices run from around £290 to £452 per square metre. Northampton businesses cover NN11 from the east via the A45 in around 20 minutes. The larger detached houses in the outer NN11 residential areas and the rural farmhouses in the Northamptonshire upland villages surrounding the town are where granite finds its market. Installed granite costs between £272 and £433 per square metre. STONE FOR THE OUTER NN11 VILLAGES: The outer NN11 area covers the Northamptonshire uplands, with limestone villages and farmhouses on the ridge and in the valleys between Daventry and the Warwickshire border. These properties have a character that suits granite over laminate in the kitchen.
