About Milton Keynes

Milton Keynes is a planned new town designated in 1967, built on a grid of roundabout-linked roads with parkland covering about a quarter of the urban area. It centres on a large covered shopping mall rather than a historic old town, with the wartime code-breaking site Bletchley Park nearby.
