    PURPOSE OF THIS WEBSITE

    This website is specifically designed to accommodate the portrait display of smart phones and tablets. To this end the image to text ratio is relatively high. It also offers an alternative format on its ‘Homepage’ to present a selection of some of the major features and articles on the ODHS site. Its widget format enables the selection to be  readily varied at regular intervals. This website should be treated as complementary to the ODHS site and not its replacement.

    STATUS OF THE ODHS WEBSITE

    The ODHS website is now considered complete and no further articles are planned to be published. However this extensive website covering many facets of Olney’s history will, for the time being, continue to be maintained by the ODHS Webmaster, noting that ultimately it will be under the care of Milton Keynes Heritage Association.

    The ‘Contact Us’ link is no longer available.
