Northampton Abbey, Medieval abbey in Northampton, England.
The stone buildings of Northampton Abbey spread across forty acres of land, featuring a large church structure and living quarters for Augustinian canons.
William Peverel established Northampton Abbey between 1104 and 1105, providing an endowment that included farmland, a local church, and a parish mill in Duston.
The abbey maintained extensive religious manuscripts and operated as a center of learning, supporting educational activities for local communities in medieval Northampton.
Archaeological excavations near Abbots Way off Weedon Road revealed remnants of the abbey structure and a cemetery containing approximately 300 medieval burials.
The tomb slab of Abbott de Flore remains the sole surviving element of the original abbey, now preserved within the vestry of Duston church.
