Strixton is a small village in eastern Northamptonshire that borders the main A509 road between Wellingborough and Milton Keynes.

This name might be indistinguishable from the 'Stric' recorded in the Domesday Book as holding land in the adjoining Bozeat and Wollaston parishes during the reign of Edward the Confessor.

The limited amenities include: St Rumwold was a little-known Saxon Saint who is said to have preached the Gospel after his baptism as an infant; his resting place is recorded as being in Buckingham, but it is thought that there may also be some connection with Romaldkirk in Northern England, which is not properly recorded.

The church also owns a Jacobean chalice and paten dating to 1628, which is currently on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum.

According to Pevsner, the church was rebuilt in 1873 with old materials except for the western wall, which has a triple-chamfered doorway and a sexfoil window that has over it a wavy frame.
