Get to know the modern market in Kettering

Kettering is a market town in Northamptonshire situated around 80 miles from London. Due to the fast intercity rail links to the capital, it has a growing commuter population.

Property in Kettering is mainly modern new-build, which is constantly expanding to meet the demands of the growing market, but you will also find flats, terraces and conversions, all at below national average prices.

The economy is built on the boot and shoe industry, and the town was home to many famous footwear manufacturers such as Willis and Timpsons, Dolcis, Freeman and Hardy. Today, it comprises mainly service and distribution industries due to its central location and good transport links.
