Hollowell

Hollowell Reservoir defines the setting of Hollowell — its open water and surrounding fields give this small West Northamptonshire parish a distinctly rural character, while country lanes connect it with the rolling uplands north of Northampton. Created in the 1930s to support Northampton’s water supply, the reservoir remains the area’s clearest landmark and is used for angling and walks beside the water. Hollowell itself is a compact settlement of stone and brick houses, framed by working farmland rather than suburban development. Its parish church, dedicated to St James the Apostle, reflects the long-established community at the centre of this agricultural district.
