North Crawley is a small village and civil parish on the northern fringe of the borough of Milton Keynes, in the ceremonial county of Buckinghamshire, England. Sitting amid rolling farmland a few miles from Newport Pagnell and Olney, it retains a distinctly rural feel with timber‑framed cottages, a medieval parish church and a number of listed buildings; the placename itself derives from Old English and suggests a clearing frequented by crows.
Community life in North Crawley is village‑centred, with a village hall, a pub and occasional fêtes and local clubs, while agriculture remains visible in the landscape. Economically many residents commute into Milton Keynes for work and services, so the village blends a historic character with a modern commuter role.
