Creaton is a village and civil parish in the Daventry district of the county of Northamptonshire in England, about eight miles north west of Northampton and sits on a ridge above a valley. Creaton, together with its attractive surrounding countryside, is set in the heart of what William Blake called “England’s green and pleasant land”. The village lies some 8 miles north of Northampton. There are currently around 500 inhabitants. In the centre of the village is a large, sloping green, certainly one of the finest in the county. The church dates from the 13th century with a low stone tower. On the High Street stands a United Reformed Church. The village possesses an excellent primary school, a thriving Post Office/General Stores and a pub, “The Bricklayers Arms.” On the Brixworth Road is a well-used playing field. The Village Hall is the hub for a variety of activities, not least of which is a busy Pre-School Playgroup. On the outskirts of the village there are a Conference Centre, 'Highgate House' (a former 17th century coaching inn) and a few small businesses which provide employment for local people.
