==History==
What is now ''Irchester'' was spelled ''Yranceaster'' in 973 and ''Irencestre'' in the 1086 Domesday Book. A. D. Mills wrote that name was formed from the Old English personal name ''Ira'' or ''
*Yra'' with the suffix ''ceaster'' denoting a Roman station,〔Mills, A.D. (1998). A Dictionary of English Place-names. Second Edition. Oxford University Press, Oxford. p197. ISBN 0-19-280074-4〕 but another theory says that ''Iren Ceastre'' was an Anglo-Saxon name meaning 'iron fortress'.〔Holmes, Clive. (Irchester ). Northampton Chronicle and Echo. 7 March 2007. Retrieved 4 May 2009〕 In the 11th century it was spelled ''Erncestre'' or ''Archester'' and had evolved to ''Erchester'' by the 12th century.〔(Parishes: Irchester with Knuston and Chester-on-the-Water, A History of the County of Northampton ): Volume 4 (1937), pp. 21-27. Retrieved 4 May 2009〕
