Map of the UK

Old Woughton is a small civil parish on the southern side of Milton Keynes, England, centred on the historic village of Woughton on the Green. The village is notable for its village green, thatched cottages and a conservation area that hints at medieval agricultural origins, so it feels distinctly rural despite sitting inside the new‑town grid.

Geographically the parish is shaped by typical Milton Keynes features - green corridors, lakes and watercourses such as the nearby River Ouzel and the Grand Union Canal - and its economy is largely residential with local shops, a pub and community facilities. A lively local council and village groups keep a strong sense of community, organising events and protecting the area’s historic character while remaining close to the wider jobs and amenities of Milton Keynes.
