Castle Ashby house driveway -

Castle Ashby red garages on the backroads -

Griggs' old factory in Wollaston -

The wall out the front of Grendon hall -

Some random industrial unit near Mr Sutton's work -

Have a look around some of the new industrial units for night photography as they have some good lighting.
anywhere in sixfields northampton?
i have used rushden & diamonds, castle ashby, indstrial units next to needle and awl, kimbolton, santa pod, higham square...
not sure really, i have been looking for some good locations for a while but cant seem to find anything interesting or with a good backdrop.

Didn't think about that, I suppose I could go to those massive ones off the A45 near Wellingborough, and have a look round Park Farm too.
I spent ages driving round before and couldn't really find much, which is a shame

i have been meaning to check out those new ones off the A45, everytime i drive past i dont have my camera so havent been down there yet.
yeah know what you mean, i went out looking for a few locations last year and spent all day just driving about lol think i took 2 photos in kimbolton an that was it.
[edit] going along the lines of castle ashby etc. how about out harrold/carlton way? there's a few nice old villages/pubs with the old stone walls or country parks/lakes. Could have some good locations its just trying to find somewhere to park up without causing to much chaos 
[edit again] how about out MK way, exscape and central mk at night?

as you get into newton blossomville from turvey take the first left, it will be sign posted astwood!
also its not a full size 2 lanes so u will have to keep moving the car if people come but its pretty cool and if its clear, nice to fly down!

Where's the leaner centre? I took my test in Wellingborough 
MK is good but it's a long way to go for some pics really, and it's best at night.
