Towcester Racecourse, the most elevated National Hunt racecourse in England, closed in 2018 but the site has been redeveloped for a new stadium.

Average house prices in NN12 run around £319,000, slightly above the Northamptonshire average, driven by the Silverstone connection and the South Northamptonshire countryside character.
