Newbottle is situated in the south west corner of Northamptonshire
above the Cherwell Valley looking towards the hills of Warwickshire
and the Cotswolds. A deserted village, it now consists only of
the Manor, the Church and two other houses. The main village
is at Charlton a mile across the fields. The two nearest towns are Banbury in Oxfordshire and Brackley in
Northamptonshire.
The village of Charlton is a thriving village with a shop, pub
and village school. The Estate, which is run by Mr John and Lady
Juliet Townsend, has 650 ha centred round Charlton and Newbottle,
all farmed in hand. It is a mixed farm of arable and a beef herd
of Aberdeen Angus cattle. There are 25 houses in and around the
village, the majority let on assured shorthold tenancies.
The Estate owns two other different businesses in Brackley. The
Old Hall Bookshop was started by John and Juliet in 1977 and sells
both old and new books as well as maps and cards. Just down the
road Brackley Butchers, sells the Newbottle
Estate beef.
