Oundle is an old market town along the River Nenem in East Northsamptonshire, England. It has a population of around 6,000 people (2012 estimate).
The Oundle area has been inhabited since the Iron Age, and in the medieval period was a site of a farmers' market. The market is still being held today at Market Place every second Saturday of the month. The trades in the area made it prosperous. Oundle was one of the few towns which managed to avoide the Black Death in the 14th century.
Today Oundle is a charming town with many old, well-preserved buildings.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
