Daventry is a constituency in Northamptonshire represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2010 by Chris Heaton-Harris of the Conservative Party, who has served as Secretary of State for Northern Ireland since 2022.

History

The seat, one of many created in 1918, was a narrower form of the oldest creation of South Northamptonshire and lasted 32 years until it reverted into "South Northamptonshire". Finally today's seat was recreated mostly from the north of the South Northants seat in 1974. Since its recreation and during its first existence it has been served by Conservative MPs. As the 1997 majority was also not marginal, it has been to date an archetypal safe seat.

• The District of North Northamptonshire ward of Earls Barton
• The District of West Northamptonshire wards of Braunston and Crick; Brixworth; Daventry East; Daventry West; Long Buckby; Moulton; Silverstone (polling districts SAG, SAP, SAQ, SBJ and SCL); Woodford and Weedon.

The part of the Bugbrooke ward is to be transferred to South Northamptonshire, offset by the addition of the remainder of the Earls Barton ward from Wellingborough and the part of Silverstone ward from South Northamptonshire.
