## Description

**LOCAL AREA INFORMATION**

The area of Kingsley derived its name from its position as an outlying corner of Kingsthorpe manor with the main focal point being the Racecourse. This large green open space has defined the development of houses around it and whilst no longer used for spring and autumn racing it is preserved as an open recreation ground. It was also the cessation of racing that led to the Kingsley Park Hotel standing empty for some 18 years and being nicknamed The White Elephant, a name it retains today. The remainder of local facilities are predominantly located along Kingsley Park Terrace and include restaurants, take away foods, general stores, building society, hair salons, car parts and chemist, though residents can access Northampton town centre's additional shops, entertainment venues and facilities a mile away, including a train station with mainline services to London Euston and Birmingham New Street.
