There is so much to do in Abington!

For the fashion conscious we have a fantastic selection of independent retailers supplying the very best in clothing, shoes and accessories. The list of top brand names would be impressive for a London suburb independent high Street, and here it all is on the Wellingborough Road.

Eating out is a pleasure with menu choices from around the globe and whether it’s a quick pint or Champaign Cocktail you fancy, Abington has it all. Our local directory is designed to help you get the most from your local High Street and from time to time we will feature new and existing businesses in this section of the website keeping you up to date with what’s new in Abington.

Abington Park is a great venue for families with it’s children’s play area and the lakes and stream in the woods. A series of outdoor Brass band concerts are scheduled at the Band Stand throughout July and August, and remember to visit the Museum which is staging a number of children’s activities throughout the year.
