This cross is one of the three surviving Eleanor Crosses in Northampton. After Queen Eleanor died in Lincoln in 1290, her grieving husband King Edward I (aka Edward Longshanks, of Brave Heart fame) had her body taken to London. He later had an elaborate memorial cross erected to mark each nightly resting places along the journey.

The Boroughs is an area of Northampton bordered by Grafton Street, Broad Street and Saint Andrew's Road. The original Northampton Castle was just to the south west. In the late nineteenth century it became a major centre of population, so much so that poverty and overcrowding became rife. Much of the area was demolished after the war and new housing build in several waves. A few earlier buildings still survive, some of which are shown here.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delapr%c3%a9_Abbey Delapré Abbey (The Abbey of the meadow), or more properly, the Abbey of St Mary de Pratis, Northampton, was one of only two Cluniac nunneries built in England (the other being at Arthington in Yorkshire); the Cluniac order was a branch of the Benedictines and fell under the rule of the great abbey at Cluny in Burgundy. Typically there were between a dozen and twenty nuns resident at the abbey at any one time. The Abbey was founded by Simon of St Liz in the reign of King Stephen and held a Royal Charter from Edward III. At its founding the Abbey was endowed with a lot of land at Hardingstone and held the churches at Earls Barton, Great Doddington and Fotheringay (confirmed by the Scottish Kings Malcolm and William). Edward III increased their holdings with the churches of Wollaston and Filgrave and also granted them the advowson of the church at Fyfield, Hampshire. Edward III is recorded as giving "Ten beams" towards the repair of the church in 1232 and another five oaks for work on the Refectory in 1258. Traditionally the Guild of Weavers at Northampton would make an annual procession to the Abbey church each Easter Monday, where according to the ordinances of the Guild in 1431 they would offer up, "...tapers before the ymages of the Trynitie and our Lady." It is thought that there was (and possibly still is) an underground passage linking the nunnery to a friary based in the centre of Northampton, by way of Bridge Street. After later use as a private residence and in war service, the house became the Northamptonshire County Records Office and the County Record Society; at present the house is empty and a fierce debate continues locally over its future use. The building is Grade II* listed. The Abbey is reputed to be haunted by a "blue or grey Lady" - reputedly a nun - who is said to have been seen frequently on the main staircase (the habits of Cluniac nuns were blue).
