Formed in the 1930s, Desborough Island is a manmade island in the River Thames. The island was created to reduce flooding in the area.
As most of the 112-acre island is uninhabited, you can enjoy the green open spaces and playing fields here. The island is easy to explore by bike thanks to the network of paths.
