Church Brampton is a village in Northamptonshire. Together with nearby Chapel Brampton the two villages are known as The Bramptons. At the time of the 2001 census, the combined parish's population was just 251 people.
Just outside Church Brampton are two golf clubs, Church Brampton's Northamptonshire County Golf Course and the Brampton Heath golf course, a public course.
Parish church
The parish church is St. Botolph's. It dates back to the early 13th century, and of course it is this church which gives a name to the village: a chapel stands in Chapel Brampton.
