  • IRON ROUTE - Romans, Rivers, Trams and Trains Full Route - 9.5 Miles 5 Mile Break Point Estimated Walk Time: 3-4 Hours Estimated Cycle Time: 2-3 Hours
    IRON ROUTE - Romans, Rivers, Trams and Trains Full route - 9.5 miles 5 mile break point Estimated walk time: 3-4 Hours Estimated cycle time: 2-3 hours Get active and explore Milton Keynes with our Cultural Routes Route Description: Whether you walk cycle or run, this route has something for everyone, showcasing the very best of Milton Keynes’ arts and heritage to be discovered in the northwestern area of the city, including Stony Stratford and Wolverton. We suggest starting at Wolverton Train Station for those coming by train or via the Redway network. Alternatively, park in the Ouse Valley Car Park off Newport Road, and proceed in an anti-clockwise direction on the Sustrans National Route 6 through the Ouse Valley Park. As you pass through the Floodplain Forest Nature Reserve, following the contours of the River, be sure to look out for the wild Konik ponies introduced in 2017. If you are completing the shorter 5 mile version you will leave the route just before the Iron Trunk Aqueduct and head back to Wolverton, joining the main route at Stratford Road. If you are completing the full 9.5 mile route, you will continue along the leisure path into Stony Stratford Nature Reserve, finally departing The Parks Trust land at Millfield and head along Willow Lane into Silver Street. You will pass the Stony Stratford market square and Wall Mural by Zoe Maslen (2016), before crossing the original Roman Road – Watling Street. Don’t forget to explore the Old Tram Sheds before heading out of Stony Stratford back to Wolverton.

  • 2015/2016 Report to Parish Council Re: Deanshanger Village Heritage Society
    Deanshanger Annual Parish meeting 22 April 2016 Report booklet Deanshanger Parish Council The parish council would like to thank the residents of Deanshanger for voting for them in the 2015 elections, it’s been a challenge as well as hard work, but though the learning curve is a steep one, the council is delivering results now and has plans for 2016 which will help the village. The parish council have maintained the same precept as 2014/15 which is excellent news to residents as there has been no increased costs. The Council have all finances and the records up to date to ensure the monies secured and held by the Parish Council are accountable and the use of funds is widely known. The council has the precept as well as some secured funds from development in the village. There is also the New Homes Bonus which groups of Deanshanger have access to apply to for funds. We have this year looked to work with the police to ensure we have issues facilitated and managed and worked with the police to maintain a safe environment. Also working with the police and the community to support Neighbourhood Watch and understand where we can support new initiatives such as street watch. The council has seen a lot of a change with new councillors, now up to capacity along with a new clerk. All of which has been exciting and challenging, to ensure that the running of the council is in order, up to standard and for everyone to understand the polices which sometimes have been challenging due to the amount of bureaucracy involved.
