West Northamptonshire Development Corporation has received a planning application from Daventry District Council for a major mixed use development in the town centre.

Referred to as town centre vision sites 3 and 6, the development includes up to 300 new homes, a new college, primary healthcare facilities and replacement accommodation for the Phoenix Youth Centre.
