Corby, Midlands Employment Information
Corby Overview
Corby is a rapidly growing town in Northamptonshire. Though Corby is situated in the heart of England, it's known to many as "little Scotland." In the 1930s, the town saw a massive influx of Scottish immigrants to work the Stewarts & Lloyds steelworks. Though today's residents may describe the Scottish heritage as somewhat diluted, it's still very much a part of the town's unique culture. The Corby accent maintains a bit of a Scottish lilt for many, and stores in the area readily serve haggis, black pudding, and other Scottish specialties.
Average weekly earnings in Corby are £435.80, compared to a national average of £517.80.
