Meanings
- A village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire district, Northamptonshire, England, formerly in East Northamptonshire district (OS grid ref SP9197).
It must have been the magnetism of the viaduct that towers over the village of Harringworth, and which crosses the flood plain of the River Welland on the border of Rutland and Northamptonshire, which drew my family to living close by when we moved to Britain's smallest county in the early 1990s.
