Milton Keynes is the culmination and perhaps the perfection of the ?Garden City? devolopments in Britain that followed the Second World War. The foundation was laid in 1967 when Milton

Keynes was officially designated a new town.

Milton Keynes capitalised on the earlier lessons of towns like Welwyn Garden City and Stevenage and has successfully blended modern life and commerce to make it one of the best places to live and work in Britain.

The twentieth century is so often heralded as the planners dream gone wrong. Whereas those that know Milton Keynes, feel its very much a case of the planner dream came true! Part of the reason for this is the significant architectural and planning talent assembled for the job in the early 70's.

Milton Keynes is no laughing matter!

Milton Keynes gained prominance in the nations psyche through the gags of 70's comedians like Jasper Carrott, that made fun of the roundabouts and the infamous concrete cows. Later we found out that few of the comedians had even been to MK, but most people were left with a false impression of the city that has taken 25 years to shake off.

Great location

Milton Keynes enjoys a great location for commerce and for the traveler looking for a base. Going north it's 45 miles from London on the way to Birmingham. Looking east to west it's midway between Cambridge and Oxford.
