About

Tattenhoe and Emerson Valley are residential suburbs situated in the southwest of Milton Keynes. The area is characterised by its grid road system and numerous green spaces, including linear parks and playgrounds integrated into the housing estates. Housing primarily consists of modern detached and semi-detached homes built from the late 1980s onwards, giving the neighbourhood a consistent and planned appearance. The layout prioritises separation between vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians through the use of redways and underpasses.

The local landscape is defined by the large balancing lakes at Tattenhoe Park and Emerson Valley, which are central features for recreation and wildlife. These lakes are part of the city's sophisticated surface water drainage system. The area contains several local shops, a community centre, and schools, serving daily needs within the neighbourhood. A notable local landmark is the preserved medieval ridge and furrow field patterns visible in Tattenhoe Park, a remnant of the area's agricultural past before the new town's development.
