Into the Grid

Have you ever wondered about where you live? When was it built, who designed it, and why is it called what it is? We can help!

Our pilot project has created factsheets about two grid square estates in Milton Keynes – Fullers Slade and Great Holm.

The factsheets are packed with information about the history of each area – when it was built, who designed it, what’s the background to its name, interesting facts, historic images and much more. Designed to be fun, visually appealing and easily accessible, the sheets are available as physical copies and digital downloads. They collate information in one easy place for local residents and interested researchers.

The pilot was part-funded by a grant from Milton Keynes Heritage Association and Milton Keynes City Council, the rest being funded ourselves.
