Bow Brickhill is a small village and civil parish on the eastern edge of Milton Keynes in the ceremonial county of Buckinghamshire. Perched on one of the Brickhill ridge tops it commands pleasant views across the Marston Vale and retains a distinctly rural, hilltop character despite being only a few miles from Bletchley and Woburn Sands; there is also a local stop on the Marston Vale line connecting the area with nearby towns.
Historically the settlement has medieval roots and a compact village centre with a long‑standing parish church and a number of older cottages. Economically and socially it is largely residential, home to a close‑knit community many of whom commute into Milton Keynes or Bedford, and it remains popular with walkers and people seeking a quieter feel within easy reach of urban amenities.
