Here's a round up of plans for in and around Northampton – including new restaurants, pub refurbishments, flats and much more.

Other plans which have not be submitted to the council but are worth a mention include planned refurbishments for The King Billy in Commercial Street and The Five Bells pub in Bugbrooke.
