Moulton is a large village in West Northamptonshire.[1] The population of the civil parish at the 2021 Census was 5,491.[2]
The villages name is thought to be derived from 'town of the mill', or perhaps 'Meleton' - meaning protected town, since the church, manor house and castle were all within bowshot. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it is spelt 'Moltone'.[3]
Moulton Parish Council won the Local Council Award Scheme Gold in 2024.[4][5]
