A Tour of the Parish Churches of Milton Keynes and the far North of Buckinghamshire |
Details of Slide Show - by Michael G Hardy |
Introduction
A general description of the type of items included in this show is given on the page "Parish Churches of Buckinghamshire - in 4 parts".
Part One covers the far northern extremity of the historic county of Buckinghamshire, to the north of the area designated in the 1960s for the City of Milton Keynes. We start on the west side, an area surprisingly remote.
Part Two looks at Parish Churches within the designated are of Milton Keynes. Firstly we look at what I consider are churches with the character of town churches. We end by looking at churches that were obviously always village churches, and mainly manage to keep that special sort of rural quality, an achievement still even maintained by some of the old villages that surround them.
Leaflet
An 8 page A5 leaflet is available which details the churches in this particular show, and lists their main features that are included in the slide show. These leaflets are available at the slide show (with the consent of the organisation holding the meeting) and will usually be charged for (to cover the cost of production) at 35 pence each.
