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

Northampton Parish is roughly triangular in shape, bounded:[2][7][8] The original land boundaries of Northampton were the current eastern shoreline boundary of Southampton Parish extended inland for 12 miles (19 km), then by a line running from thence north-westerly to the mouth of a river which discharges into the river Saint John, at the upper boundary of block number seven, about two miles and a quarter above the upper end of Pine Island,[a] producing a shallower but much wider parish that included Southampton Parish.

The wording of the northeastern boundary proved problematic, describing an endpoint in a stretch of shoreline with no waterway large enough to be named on modern provincial maps.

In 1862 the boundary with Brighton Parish was moved north from the mouth of Shaws Creek to its current course.

[3] The parish LSD was established in 1966[17] to assess for fire protection after the abolition of county government under the new Municipalities Act.

[20] Upper and Lower Northampton comprised the Saint John River grants from the southern intersection of Route 105 and Parker Road.
