Rutland Telecom have not replied to my enquiry about exchanged based and/or cabinet based services, it is some weeks since I contacted them.
A fibre to the home (FTTH) system builder was conceptually interested in Wittering, but needs some local enthusiasm and contacts to take it further. Anyone ?
Meanwhile, the latest Northamptonshire superfast broadband newsletter (pdf download) reveals that our exchange features in the first phase of their bid to BDUK for broadband improvements...
Band 1 contains over 35,000 residential premises and almost 1,500 commercial premises. The 14 exchange areas that would be initially in this band are:
Broughton, Byfield, Kislingbury, Middleton Cheney, Weedon, Long Buckby, Brixworth, Towcester, Silverstone, Roade, Bozeat, Thrapston, Oundle, and Wansford.
So our lobbying does appear to have raised the profile to good effect.
