A lovely village, in 2019 voted the 4th most desirable village to live in the UK. Home of one of the oldest agricultural shows in the UK, held every year on the 1st Saturday in August and a Vintage Steam Fair in September. Blakesley Village Hall car park also has an EV Charging Point, unusual for a small community like ours.
