URPoint Details
The three villages stand, roughly a mile apart, in the wooded sandy country east of Bletchley on the Bedfordshire border. Between Little Brickhill and Fenny Stratford is the site of Magiovinium, a Roman road station.
Bow Brickhill, the most northerly of the three, has its church perched on the steeply wooded slopes at the end of the village. This rather isolated church, restored after falling into disuse, in 1756, contains a 15th century wooden pulpit.
Little Brickhill, on the busy A5 trunk road, centres round a church restored in 1864.
Great Brickhill is the largest of the three and retains several attractive Georgian houses along side its 13th/14th century church.
