Rushden History

Rushden History

Traditionally Rushden grew up through lacemaking, farming and shoemaking. In the mid 1900’s there were over 100 boot and shoe factories in the area, today only a handful remain. Industry is varied today with out of town industrial estates being home to most businesses.

Rushden Hall is the oldest domestic building in the town previously owned by the Pemberton and Sartoris family. The hall is the head office to the Council and is set in 32 acres of parkland called Hall Park.
