It is conveniently situated among rolling countryside on the A45 midway between the A1 and the M1, some 40 minutes from Northampton or Peterborough. The well-appointed Medical Centre was built in 1998 and offers spacious air-conditioned accommodation. We are a forward looking practice currently looking to increase the size of our surgery by building an extension, due to be completed in 2020, to cope with increasing patient numbers.
