NORTH CRAWLEY HISTORICAL SOCIETY (INCLUDING CHICHELEY)

FUTURE EVENTS

Sunday 1st September 2024 at 10am: Unveiling of Historical Sign on the Waste Ground

The Historical Society and the Parish Council are keen to preserve the old historic place names in the Village and have collaborated to produce a sign on the Waste Ground. Milton Keynes Heritage Association have given a very generous grant in support of the Historical Society on this project. The sign displays a brief history with pictures to give locals and visitors historical information about our lovely village. The unveiling will be followed by a leisurely 3 mile walk around the countryside with field names and historic features.
