Deene is a small village in Northamptonshire. Its name describes its location: it simply means 'Valley'.[1] The village is less than a mile north-west of Deenethorpe and a mile south-west of Bulwick

The old parish church, St Peter's Church, has been declared redundant.

There is a village hall.

Extending broadly over the valley, along the south side of the village and beyond, is the manor and estate of Deene Park.
