Emberton is a small village and civil parish in the unitary authority of the City of Milton Keynes, in Buckinghamshire, England. It sits a few miles north‑east of central Milton Keynes, close to Olney and Newport Pagnell, and retains a distinctly rural character with a compact core of older cottages, a historic parish church and several listed buildings that give the village a clearly conserved, village‑green feel.
Locally important is Emberton Country Park, a popular spot for lakeside walks, birdwatching and family recreation, which helps attract visitors from the surrounding area. The local economy remains largely agricultural with many residents commuting into nearby towns and the new town of Milton Keynes; socially the place is known for a close‑knit community with a village hall and occasional local events rather than a high street culture.
