Looking back: Corby Old Village in the spotlight

Corby is taking its turn in the spotlight for this week’s trawl through our photo archives – specifically the old village.

While the town has grown and changed massively over the past 100 years, the original village is still going strong.

Here we take a look at events at the school, new business opening, community events and more.
