Woodnewton is a village in Northamptonshire, England. Essentially a pair of parallel streets, the village lies to the north of a small stream, the Willow Brook, in Rockingham Forest. It is in North Northamptonshire. At the time of the 2001 census, the parish's population was 442 people, increasing slightly to 450 at the 2011 Census. The setting is rural, with the village positioned within a forested area and close to a modest watercourse. The population size suggests a tight-knit community, and the layout of two parallel streets indicates a compact settlement. The village’s inclusion in the PE 8 postal district places it within the broader Peterborough area, offering a rural lifestyle while still being connected to larger towns. The available data points to a quiet, small‑scale community with natural surroundings and a modest population growth over the decade.
