Althorp (lost settlement)
The lost village of Althorp is within the grounds of the Althorp estate in the English county of Northamptonshire.〔‘OS’ Explorer Map, Northampton & Market Harborough 223 ISBN 978-0-319-46396-3〕 The village is recorded in the Domesday Book. In the 15th century, the manor was held by the Catesby family who were probably responsible for clearing the settlement, for by 1505, the records show that there were no tenants. In 1508, the parish, including the cleared settlement of Althorp, was sold to John Spencer of Wormleighton in Warwickshire. By 1577, the land in the parish had been divided into four large sheep pastures.〔K.J. Allison, ''The Deserted Villages of Northampton'' Leicester: Leicester University Press (1966:34) ASIN: B0010HP1G0〕
==Remains today==
There are some signs of earthworks on the site but much has been damaged by later activities such as ploughing. The main feature is a broad hollow way which runs up the hillside and is 1.5 metres in depth. There are several platforms on the south side of the hollow which are thought to be the sites of dwellings.〔''An Inventory of Archaeological Sites in North-West Northamptonshire'' (1981) HMSO, ISBN 0-11-700900-8〕
