Malthouse Court is on the East side of Watling Street close to the centre of Towcester and a short level walk to all the shops. Entering the courtyard through the stone archway, the bustle of Watling Street gives way to the tranquility of the landscaped gardens, overlooked by the 16th century church tower. Beyond the garden lies the magnificent park of Easton Neston, the ancestral seat of the Fermors‘, glimpsed through fine trees on the banks of the Mill Leat.

Towcester originated as a Roman settlement on Watling Street and became an important staging post on the road from London to Shrewsbury. The town still has many old inns though most architecture is now Victorian and Georgian. Nearby is the beautiful house of Easton Neston built by Hawksmoor in the late 17th century. Within the grounds the church has several memorials to the family.
