The speed cameras along here are unusual, too: mounted in each-way facing pairs in the central reservation on fancy Victorian-looking poles with decorative elements looking a bit like the Batman logo! Two roundabouts later, at Round Spinney, we cross the northern outer ring road, the A , and rejoin the "traditional" route of the A Passing Moulton we are now in open country.

Although a lot more obvious on the map than on the ground we are not talking Alpine elevations here! At the Broughton bypass the A43 cuts through the ridge, swings from north to north-east, and we find ourselves heading directly towards the very prominent steeple of Kettering church. We shall not pass through the town, however, as our course is intercepted by one of my least favourite roads — the A14 - which we now have to join for a mile or so northwards before the new A43, in its Kettering northern bypass role, strikes off in an almost dead-straight north-easterly direction dipping under the London—Leicester railway to cross the A Corby road a mile and a half later.

The A43 takes a new course from here turning Northbound along what used to be the A , until it reaches a new roundabout and turns North East along a new section of about 4 miles the Corby Link Road , bypassing Geddington.

The A43 skirts the eastern fringes of Corby but we see little of it. Immediately after the roundabout, at which we turn left, there is a fine vista to the right of a stately pile.

Northamptonshire seems to abound in such houses think Althorp : this one is Boughton House. With Boughton on the north side of Kettering and Broughton to the south and another Boughton just outside Northampton , I wonder if anyone ever gets confused? Here we also pass the Corby Hilton, which always sounds a strange juxtaposition of terms sorry, Corby! Excellent fish-and-chips in Corby, by the way: it's the Scottish heritage. After crossing the A Market Harborough—Oundle road we are in the country again.

The whole of this northern end of Northamptonshire is known as Rockingham Forest. Today it is more a patchwork of wooded areas but the 9 miles to the junction with the A47 at Duddington are more sinuous than the road further south and the road does have a "forest" feel. The only settlement on the route itself Bulwick has been bypassed. From Duddington also bypassed we follow the right bank of the Welland, keeping to high ground through the villages of Collyweston and Easton on the Hill before the final descent into Stamford.

According to the modern signage, the A43 now ends here. Historically, it ran on along what is now signed as the A into Stamford, crossing the line of the Roman Ermine Street before reaching the old Great North Road at a stop sign.

The A43 originally started on the A in Kidlington, to the north of Oxford. It then headed northeastwards towards Bicester, before branching off at the picturesquely named Weston On The Green towards Brackley. Northamptonshire Highways. A43 Northampton to Kettering improvements. Page Content. Description of scheme The A43 between Northampton and Kettering suffers from congestion hotspots, journey time delay and road safety issues due to vehicles trying to overtake.
