Walton

Walton was a hamlet that is now a district and civil parish in Milton Keynes, ceremonial Buckinghamshire, England. For local government purposes, it is part of the Danesborough and Walton electoral ward.
The historic hamlet is located about four miles south of Central Milton Keynes and just east of Simpson, mostly along Walton Road in the modern Walnut Tree district. The modern H9 Groveway grid road severs a few of its houses into Walton Hall and the V10 Brickhill Street separates the Manor Farm off into the Walton grid square. The Manor Farm has been redeveloped, first into a research centre for Hoechst and subsequently as the UK headquarters of MSD Animal Health.
The village name is a common one in England, and is an Old English language word, meaning either 'village of the Britons' or 'walled village'. The village is first recorded as Wauton.
The manor house of the village, and its chapel of ease, now deconsecrated, are in the campus grounds of The Open University, in the Walton Hall district.
