William Knibb is a two-member ward within Kettering Borough Council, created by boundary changes that took effect in 2007, having been carved out of part of the former St. Mary's ward in Kettering town. The ward was named after William Knibb, Baptist missionary in Jamaica, and covers the town centre as well as the area around Mill Road just east of the centre. It was fought at borough council level on Thursday 3 May 2007, at which both seats were won by Labour.
