In the 19th century, Kettering gained fame for its flourishing boot and shoe industry, leading to the construction of grand residences for factory owners in the Headlands and Rockingham Road, and smaller housing for workers in the same areas. However, the industry has significantly declined since the 1970s, with large footwear manufacturers 
such as Dolcis, Freeman, Hardy and Willis, Frank Wright, and Timpsons either closing down or leaving the town due to competition from cheaper overseas production. Some manufacturers have outsourced their production to lower-cost countries. Today, the area has only two smaller footwear businesses left, and the decline of the industry has had a significant impact on the local economy and community.

It is not a good idea to hide keys near the front door, as it can pose a security risk. Experienced burglars know common hiding spots and can easily find hidden keys, allowing them to gain access to your home without having to break in. This puts your home and possessions at risk, as well as the safety of you and your family. Instead, it is recommended to give a spare key to a trusted neighbour, friend, or family member, or invest in a secure key holder that can be mounted in a discreet location.
Repairing an intercom system can vary widely depending on the specific issues you’re facing and the type of intercom system you have. Here’s a general guide to help you troubleshoot and 
potentially repair common intercom system problems. Before attempting any repairs, identify the specific issue with your intercom system. Is it not powering on? Is the audio quality poor? Are certain units not communicating with each other? Pinpointing the problem will help you focus your troubleshooting efforts.
If the intercom system isn’t powering on, ensure that it’s receiving power. Check the power source, circuit breaker, and any fuses. Replace any blown fuses or reset tripped breakers. Make sure all cables and wires are properly connected. Loose or damaged connections can cause communication issues. Inspect cables for physical damage and replace them if necessary.
If you’re experiencing poor audio quality, ensure that the speakers and microphones are clean and not obstructed. Check for any frayed or damaged cables affecting audio transmission. If certain units aren’t communicating with each other, first make sure that they are powered on and connected properly. Check for any settings that might be blocking communication or causing interference.
Some modern intercom systems have digital components that can be configured through software settings. Check the user manual for guidance on how to adjust settings related to volume, channel, privacy modes, and more. Interference from other electronic devices can disrupt intercom communication. Ensure that there are no electronic devices nearby that could be causing interference. Try changing the channel or frequency to see if that improves communication. If possible, test the malfunctioning unit with a working unit. This can help determine if the issue lies with the specific unit or the entire system.
