Working in Thrapston

A small market town on the Nene, ten miles north-east of our office, where the A14 crosses the river. Lakes, a nature reserve and a lot of trades and rural businesses.

Why Thrapston

Thrapston is the small market town where the A14 crosses the Nene, ten miles from our office by the A45 and A6, or the back road through Finedon and Woodford. It is a stone town with a short High Street, a business park by the junction, and a surprising number of trades, agricultural firms and rural businesses spread through the villages around it.

We go there because the A14 makes it the gateway to the eastern side of the county, and because a town this size and the villages around it are usually a long way from anyone who builds websites for a living. That is the gap we work in.

How we work with businesses here

The first meeting is best done in person, and we will come to you. Thrapston is about twenty minutes from Wellingborough, and a site visit tells us more about a business than any brief. After that the work goes online: the design shared as a link, changes sent by email and turned around the same day, and the monthly looking-after handled from our office without anyone needing to drive up the A6.

If you would rather do the whole thing online, that suits us just as well.

Who we look after nearby

We do not yet have a client story from Thrapston itself. Our nearest are in Wellingborough and Northampton, and both towns have their own pages here. Thrapston is inside the Wellingborough and North Northants Chamber of Commerce area, which we support. If your business is here, or in one of the villages around it, there is space at the top of this list.

If you are here

The lakes north of town are the afternoon out, a flat loop around the water with plenty of birds and very few people. Walk over the Nine Arches to Islip for the view back across the river. If you have longer, Oundle is six miles up the valley and one of the prettiest towns in the county, which makes a Thrapston meeting a good excuse for a longer day.

Worth a visit

If you are in Thrapston

Thrapston Lakes and Titchmarsh nature reserve

The flooded gravel pits north of the town, now a Wildlife Trust reserve with hides, a heronry and a flat walk around the water.

The Nine Arches bridge

The medieval stone bridge over the Nene between Thrapston and Islip, still carrying the road, and the best view of the river in town.

Islip

The village across the bridge, with a stone church, a good pub and the start of the footpaths up the valley.

The Nene Way

The long-distance path along the river passes straight through the town, with easy walking to Islip, Titchmarsh and Denford.

Oundle

The handsome stone town six miles up the valley, with its school, independent shops and a proper old high street, an easy pairing with a Thrapston visit.
