Although a very small village Rushden has a colourful and varied history and was mentioned in Domesday, although the size of the village has doubled since 1086 when there were only 100 inhabitants.
Starting in 1086 with the Domesday Book, there were two large farms and twenty families (100 people) living in Risendene (Rushy Vale) around Church Green. Each family probably had two pigs. Cattle and sheep were grazed on unfenced pasture at South End Green. Southern Green remains the same today.
