About

Bradwell ward sits in the northern part of Milton Keynes, bordered by the Grand Union Canal to the west and the River Ouse to the north. The area encompasses the original village of Bradwell and its historic parish church, alongside later residential developments built as the city expanded. Housing is primarily a mix of post-war homes and more recent estates, providing a range of family accommodation. The local landscape includes several pockets of green space and playing fields integrated into the neighbourhood layout.

A defining characteristic is the preserved Bradwell Abbey, a medieval monastic grange and scheduled monument that now operates as a heritage and arts centre. This historic site sits in stark contrast to the surrounding modern cityscape. The area is served by local shops and schools, with the wider facilities of Central Milton Keynes accessible via the city's grid road system. The presence of the canal and river offers routes for walking and cycling along their respective towpaths and banks.
