About

Hanslope, Castlethorpe and Sherington lie north of Central Milton Keynes in a patchwork of arable fields, hedgerows and lanes. Hanslope Park occupies a large estate on the edge of the village and is a longstanding local landmark now used by government departments. Hanslope village retains a compact centre with a parish church and houses that follow older plots. Castlethorpe sits on slightly higher ground where the earthwork remains of a medieval motte mark the village’s origin. Narrow roads link the three settlements and support a network of public footpaths and bridleways that cross pasture and crop fields.

The three villages share community facilities: a village hall, pubs and primary school provision within short distances, with other services in nearby towns. Farming rhythms shape the landscape and sightlines, and small ponds and stream courses collect runoff across the clay soil. Regular bus routes and local lanes connect the area to the wider Milton Keynes grid while keeping the series of villages distinct from the town’s urban core. The result is a cluster of historic settlements set into working countryside.
