If you want to tick boxes, then tick boxes.  I was born near Stratford -
what you now see is 2% of what was there in my youth.

There are things to see in Northampton, especially the County Archives.
Northampton was the capital of England for a while.  The Abingdon Brewery
Company is worth a visit, too.
