Tour Overview
This is the original village from which the city takes its name.
Introduction
Welcome to our virtual trail of Milton Keynes Village. You can start anywhere you like by clicking on a Numbered Point on the map.
If you start at Position 1, this is a good place to park your car if you drove to the village. Follow the route around the village and read the descriptions.
There are 2 parts to the tour. You can choose to walk 1 - 15 or 15 - 22 or both parts, which will take you about 1.5 hours. Afterwards the village pub awaits...
At most positions, you can see current and past pictures (except 21 the Medieval Manor site where there is now only a mound). The texts will tell you more.
Our villages website has much more information, including census data, church records, and our current series of meetings.
