The whole estate at the time was bought by local developer, Joe Fitzgerald and he was responsible for constructing Bury Court as his personal home in 1971. The original house was built using many of the original Tudor and Georgian bricks along with reclaimed materials from Whittlebury Hall which was derelict at that time. These included the stone balustrading and flagstone terraces, slate roof and chimney pots together with the stunning white marble fireplace enjoying pride of place in the drawing room and the large wrought iron electrically operated gates at the end of the main drive. Within the grounds (though not owned) sits one of the smallest churches in the Diocese of Oxford, St Leonards. The beautiful stone-built church dates to the 13/14th century and was saved from demolition in the 1970’s and is now a daughter to the church in Haversham, both within the parish of Haversham- cum-Little Linford. The original house was designed in the Queen Anne style and has been sympathetically extended and fully modernised by the current custodians to create a most stunning country house in a mini parkland setting. The property particularly benefits from a southerly aspect with comprehensive terracing, and given its elevation looks down across its parkland grounds, woodland and lake. Great attention has gone into the design and execution of the significant extension works carried out by the current owners, and the property benefits from a combination of classic proportions with a contemporary interior. Modern technology including comprehensive security systems, Cat 6 wiring throughout and Broadband fibre to the premises all contribute to a classic family house updated to cope with the demands of the 21st Century. The quality of the fixtures and fittings throughout the property is particularly of note with walnut floors and staircase, contemporary cornicing and Duravit and Grohe bathroom jackson-stops.co.uk fittings and furniture throughout. All windows (sash) throughout the property are double glazed.

The flexible light and airy accommodation is laid out over two floors and there is potential to create an independent annexe if required. There is ample parking around the property with 2 double garages and one recently built triple garage, designed in harmony with the main property. The whole property is set in manicured grounds which surround Bury Court on all sides offering a high degree of privacy and protection.

Milton Keynes Council established in its Core Strategy a target of delivering 28,000 homes in the period from 2010 to 2026; an average of 1,750 homes per year. This target is split 26,240 in the urban area and 1,760 across the rural rest of the Borough. 1.2 There is a need to ensure that there is choice and flexibility in land supply across the Borough. This will help maintain completion rates and enable the Council to demonstrate it has a five year supply of land, which is a strict government requirement. Problems with this can arise because, despite there being enough land available, it is not being built out quickly enough to meet the Core Strategy’s annual housing targets.

Haversham-cum-Little Linford Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group and Haversham-cum-Little-Linford Parish Council have been working for a considerable time to prepare a Neighbourhood Plan for the Parish. We have been assisted in this by Oneill Homer, a leading consultancy who have assisted Parish and Town Councils around the country to produce well over 100 Neighbourhood Plans, including several in Milton Keynes. The cost of this consultancy work has been paid for by a government grant. What is a Neighbourhood Plan? A document that sets out planning policies for the neighbourhood area – planning policies are used to decide whether to approve planning applications. Written by the local community, the people who know and love the area, rather than the Local Planning Authority. A powerful tool to ensure the community gets the right types of development, in the right place. What is this document for? We had hoped to hold a public meeting / exhibition to discuss the significant work undertaken so far and find out YOUR views of our policy intents and the potential development sites offered by landowners.

The northern border of the benefice, at Emberton, also borders the thriving market town of Olney. This is a lovely place to live and an exciting place to minister. The vacancy offers many opportunities for developing the mission of these churches and the lay teams here are eager to reach out into their communities. This is an exciting time to be joining the Newport deanery too. With the ongoing expansion of Milton Keynes and the planned Oxford-Cambridge arc, and East-West rail, this part of the world will become even more of a hub than it already is. Because of the proposed reorganisation of the whole deanery, we seek to appoint an Interim Priest-in-Charge with the gifts and experience to prepare this benefice for its ministry and mission in the years to come.

  • HAVERSHAM Cum LITTLE LINFORD PARISH COUNCIL
    HAVERSHAM cum LITTLE LINFORD PARISH COUNCIL DRAFT MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE HAVERSHAM CUM LITTLE LINFORD PARISH COUNCIL held at Haversham Social and Community Centre on Monday 18th September 2017 at 7.30pm PRESENT- Cllrs N Watson (in the Chair), I Burgess, C Langham, P Furniss, B Clift, P Williams and E Neal; 11 members of the public including Patrick Upton, Harvey Gilbert, Lesley Gilbert, Jackie Brown, Pat Brightman and David Stabler from Great Linford Parish Council. Clerk J Vischer. 1. APOLOGIES Ward Cllr A Geary. These were accepted. 2. PUBLIC FORUM 2.1. Lesley Gilbert reiterated a complaint concerning traffic speeds on entering the Lower village from Little Linford. She had noted that no ‘30’ speed roundel was marked on the road surface for traffic descending the hill from the ‘40’ to the ‘30’ limit where there are several such reminders to drivers at other points on this road. The Clerk expressed doubt that Milton Keynes Council (MKC) Highways would respond to such a request but it was agreed he should make enquiries into the possibility of the Parish Council paying for it. CLK 2.2. Mr Upton reported back on a meeting held between concerned residents and Ward Councillor Andrew Geary at Great Linford Parish Council offices regarding the Keswani/Portfields and Linford Lakes planning applications (17/02105/OUT & 17/01937/OUTEIS below). Concerns revolved around the possible success of a planning appeal by the developers on the basis of the validity of the MKC Five-Year Land Supply. It was agreed to append these notes of the meeting to the minutes.
