West Haddon
West Haddon is a village in the Daventry district of the county of Northamptonshire, England about north-west of Northampton and east of Rugby and just off the A428 road which by-passes the village. The villages of West Haddon and Crick were by-passed by the A428 main road from Rugby to Northampton when the Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal (DIRFT) was built in 1996 near junction 18 of the M1 Motorway, miles west of the village.
==History==
The fields of West Haddon were the location for an enclosure riot in 1765. An advertisement was made in the county newspaper for a football game that was to be played in those fields. The football game was a means to assemble a mob which tore down fences and burned them, protesting against the laws that were then being enacted that allowed wealthy landowners to lay claim to land that was once public land.
In the Year 2000, the West Haddon History Group published books pertaining to the history of the village, predominantly focusing on the 20th century. Two books were released. More information can be found on their site, http://westhaddonhistory.org/self-sufficiency-to-consumer-society.htm.
