Number 1 Church Hill, nearer the camera, and number 2 Church Hill are two houses which include a former forge and a former shop. Probably built in the 17th century, with later additions and alterations. Constructed of coursed rubble stone, with the former forge in squared stone with a brick gable. The roofs are partly thatch and partly slate. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1052072 Geddington is a village in Northamptonshire, on the main road between Kettering, about 3 miles southwest, and Corby, about 4 miles north. The River Ise runs through the village and is crossed by a medieval bridge. There is evidence of Iron Age, Roman and Saxon occupation. The village is home to the best preserved Eleanor cross of the three remaining. A Royal hunting lodge once stood to the north of the village but no trace remains.
