Grafton Regis is a village and civil parish in West Northamptonshire, England, on the border with Buckinghamshire. The village is east of the A508 road, on which it has a short frontage and two bus stops, and is around 8 miles (13 km) south of Northampton and 9 miles (14 km) north of Milton Keynes. The population of the civil parish (including Alderton) at the 2001 census was 152. This increased to 253 at the 2011 census.[2]
This village is "linked" with the title of the Duke of Grafton (the first Duke was an illegitimate son of King Charles II of England).
