Our Story

We are a family eyecare provider, that was established in 1935 and is to date a strong, growing community practice.

As a community-engaging practice, we have been running and taking part in numerous town projects throughout the years.

Located in the heart of an up-and-coming market town, our practice is set in a historic building, that dates back to the early 1600s and will never be short of stories to share.

Our Commitment

Eyecare with you in mind from start to finish.

Our professional, highly motivated and experienced team pride themselves on exceptional standards of patient care.

During your visit, we listen to any concerns you may have about your eye care, thoroughly assess your ocular health and communicate our findings to you clearly and concisely. We explain the relevant solutions to you in detail and deliver your care in a safe, relaxed and comfortable environment.

Our Location

Our Grade II listed building is one of the first recorded buildings in Daventry that was offering various produce to the then village. With documents dating back to the early 1600s, shoemakers once produced footwear for the locals from within our four walls.

In 1952, Daventry Academy, a dissenting academy, moved in, offering pupils a safe place to study. One particular student is well known to this day. Joseph Priestley (1736 - 1804), was an English chemist, natural philosopher, separatist theologian, grammarian, multi-subject educator, and liberal political theorist who published over 150 works. He has historically been credited with the independent discovery of oxygen in 1774. Joseph Priestley matriculated at Daventry Academy the same year it opened their doors.

We have created a comfortable and modern practice environment, using modern ocular technology to elevate the patient experience.
