The town of Brackley lies in South Northamptonshire situated on the edge of the Cotswolds. It was built originally on the intersection between two major trade routes, from London to Birmingham and Oxford to Cambridge. Brackley is historically a market town whose initial growth was based on the wool and lace trade. The town offers easy access to all parts of England due to its proximity to both the M40 and M1. Brackley is within easy reach of Hazelborough Forest, Silverstone Circuit and Towcester Racecourse, all of which are less than a quarter of an hour away by car. For those interested in wildlife, a visit to St James' Lake is recommended. There is an old tale amongst Brackley's residents that the town developed an underground passageway that connected the Eastern and Western ends. Present day sites rumoured to be on its route include the excavated cavern on Manor Road (now an underground car park serving apartments above a supermarket) and St. Peters' Church in Old Town. Sadly, despite the appeal of the story, no actual proof of this tunnel exists. If you are looking for somewhere to stay in Brackley you could enjoy a bit of its history by staying in the Crown Inn, a 13th century coaching inn.
