Maids Moreton is a small village and civil parish on the northern edge of Buckingham in Buckinghamshire, lying a few miles west of Milton Keynes. It has medieval origins and a compact historic core centred on a substantial village green and several listed buildings, giving it a recognisably rural character despite proximity to larger towns.
The local economy is largely residential and agricultural, with many people commuting to nearby centres; locally there are community groups, a village hall and small-scale amenities, and occasional traditional events that reflect a strong village identity. Conservation designations and surviving field patterns help preserve the historic landscape, while modern housing and transport links mean the parish balances heritage with the practicalities of 21st‑century life.
