Talk:Far Cotton

ASDA and Co-op
This article mentions that there is an Asda in Ransome Road - it could mention that this used to be a Co-op.

 * Not sure we need brand names here at all . I have deleted them and referred to the shops generically. Spinney Hill (talk) 07:51, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

Cotton
Does any one know how "Cotton" got in its name? This would make an interesting addition to the article. Vorbee (talk) 07:37, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
 * The article does say the name comes from the Old English "cot" meaning "cottage" or "hut". Rollo August (talk) 19:24, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

Horrible place
I used to live in Far Cotton, and know it to be a horrible part of Northampton. Some one wrote in Northampton's local paper that it ought to be known as "Far Gotten", a pun on "Forgotten". YTKJ (talk) 20:49, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
