Mears Ashby and Earls Barton

Above views: some of the oldest cottages in Lady’s Lane, and view from the top of Grade 2 listed Church of All Saints with its listed walls, Mears Ashby.

Historic Mears Ashby dating back to 1300s, and surrounding areas will change forever

Image below: looking north from the A4500 at Earls Barton towards Mears Ashby, showing the 500 acres of panels, on a south facing slope, in full view of The Wickets.

Views from footpath on left-hand side of Highfield Road will change from farmed crops and wildflower borders to rows of black solar panels and security fencing.
