On the website I clicked on "Discover more about the rich history of Milton Keynes dating back to the Bronze Age!", and it starts from 1967!

My Grandparents lived there when I was a teenager so we visited quite often. Not a bad place really, but does all feel a bit like an industrial estate rather than a town. The roundabouts and dual carriageways make for quite a good race track.
