During the era the White Elephant was called the Kingsley Park Tavern! Don’t know anyone who ever referred to it by the new name and common sense prevailed and it quietly reverted back!
Bloody great town back then ....now its gone to the dogs....what a shame..this vid gave me the filling iv not had in years and I Thank you for that...👍
What a shame to see all the Buses and Routes Northampton Transport used to have, Stagecoach wanted NT as well as United Counties, but they weren’t allowed, the word is they got First Group to buy it, and over 20 years, move the routes to Stagecoach, exactly 20 years to the day, “First Northampton” closed, probably with only a couple of routes left.
My hometown before it turned into a real shxthole. My era is the 70s onwards, an i can tell you that Northampton has proper turned depressing. It's a shame as it was a vibrant place to grow up. Still, this brings it back. Nostalgia.💯🫡👏🏾👏🏾👊🏿

12:06 - The scene of the infamous "Have you got a Gopher" Bike accident of 1998. Those who were there will never forget.
