Discover Britain - Abington Park Northampton, we stumbled upon a gem
We did not want to waste our Sunday sitting on the boat watching TV (we are awaiting our cruiser stern to be rebuilt hence not going out on the canal) we decided to do another Discover Britain video by visiting a park right on our doorstep. Not knowing what to expect as we had only seen it on Google Maps, we were pleasantly surprised by this beautiful spot right in the middle of Northampton. If you are in the area it’s well worth a visit and is not too far from Northampton Marina at Becket’s Park (another lovely green space in Northampton). All the video here was shot on my little GoPro Hero 6 using a Joby Gorilla Tripod used as a steady cam and thrown together in GoPro Quik on the iPad Pro.

Snow Video 1 - Abington Park Northampton UK
First Snow video of Abington Park in Northampton. The Beast From The East came over the UK in March 2018 and it was snowing all day. Needless to say it was freezing cold day with a biting wind blowing across the park.
I am still learning to use the camera for video, so my apologies if the footage is shaky or jerky in places.

Abington Park
This was another outing with my friend. Visited Abington Park, went to the craft fair, had a walk. This is only part of the park including Abington Park Museum, Sensory garden,birds and band stand. Through the summer bands play in the band stand. I have been coming to this park all my life, improvements have been made through the years, but what I really love is the fact that most elements have remained the same all my life. Yes I did have to set the siren off in the police car.

Northampton is the county town of Northamptonshire in the East Midlands of England. It lies on the River Nene, about 67 miles north-west of London and 50 miles south-east of Birmingham.
Northampton rose to national significance with the establishment of Northampton Castle, which was an occasional royal residence and regularly hosted the Parliament of England. Medieval Northampton had many churches, monasteries and the University of Northampton, which were all enclosed by the town walls. It was granted its first town charter by King Richard I in 1189 and its first mayor was appointed by King John in 1215. The town is also the site of two medieval battles; the Battle of Northampton (1264) and the second in 1460.
Northampton's royal connection languished in the modern period; the town supported Parliament (the Roundheads) in the English Civil War, which culminated in King Charles II ordering the destruction of the town walls and most of the castle. The town also suffered the Great Fire of Northampton (1675) which destroyed most of the town. It was soon rebuilt and grew rapidly with the industrial development of the 18th century. Northampton continued to grow following the creation of the Grand Union Canal and the arrival of the railways in the 19th century, becoming an industrial centre for footwear and leather manufacture.
After the World Wars, Northampton's growth was limited until it was designated as a New Town in 1968, accelerating development in the town. Northampton unsuccessfully applied for unitary status in 1996 and city status in 2000; the town continues to expand with many areas undergoing urban renewal.
