Simpson and Ashland is a civil parish on the southern edge of Milton Keynes, England, where a small, historic village atmosphere meets more recent residential and light‑industrial development. The area sits between the city grid and open Buckinghamshire countryside, so it combines thatched cottages and a village church with newer housing, business units and plenty of green space close to main road and rail links into central Milton Keynes and London.
Historically Simpson has medieval roots and retains a compact community feel, with local events, a village hall and traditional pubs alongside firms serving the wider Milton Keynes economy. The parish tends to attract people who want straightforward commuting options and city amenities while keeping easy access to rural walking routes and village character.
