Nether Heyford is a village and civil parish in the South Northamptonshire district of Northamptonshire, England, close to the M1 motorway and the A5 and A45 roads, 6 miles west of Northampton and 70 miles northwest of London. The smaller village of Upper Heyford is about half a mile to the north.
Nether Heyford takes its name from either the Old English word "heg/hedge", meaning "the ford by the hedge", or from "haeg/hage", meaning "the ford over which the hay is carried". In 1086, in the Domesday Book, the name is recorded as "Heiforde". The Post Office once called the village Lower Heyford, but the name was restored to Nether Heyford after reference to it in local deeds. The village is on the flood plain of the River Nene and used to be subjected to flooding, as Watery Lane suggests.
