Kelmarsh is a village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, England. [1] [2] The population (including Haselbech) of the civil parish at the 2011 Census was 208. [3] The village is on the A508, close to its junction with the A14 about 5 miles (8 km) south of Market Harborough and 11 miles (18 km) north of Northampton. [1]
The village’s name probably means, 'marsh marked out by poles or posts'. The place-name is identical to Chelmarsh, Shropshire; the initial K- reflects Old Norse influence. [4]
Kelmarsh Hall is its principal building.
Kelmarsh Tunnel is a former railway tunnel at Kelmarsh now open as part of the Brampton Valley Way.
Between 1859 and 1960 the village was served by Kelmarsh railway station about 2 miles (3.2 km) north-east of the village running trains south to Northampton and north to Market Harborough.
