Northampton is a geographic parish in Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada,[2] sitting across the Saint John River from Woodstock.

Prior to the 2023 governance reform, for governance purposes it comprised two local service districts,[3] both of which were members of the Western Valley Regional Service Commission (WVRSC).[4]

The Census subdivision of Northampton Parish shares the geographic parish's borders.[1]
