Newton Longville is a village in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located in the Aylesbury Vale, about a mile away from Bletchley, Milton Keynes. The village name 'Newton' is Anglo Saxon in origin, and means 'new farm'. It was recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Nevtone. The affix 'Longville' came later in the Thirteenth century after the Cluniac priory of Longueville, Calvados, in Normandy, France, that was in possession of the village at that time, and to distinguish this village from other places called Newton, particularly nearby Newton Blossomville. The village used to have a large brick factory which distributed bricks all over the country but was closed down recently. Now the site is home to a waste dump. In the 14th century, the village was seized by the Crown as being of alien possession and given to New College, Oxford. The parish church is dedicated to Saint Faith.
Expansion plans
In the expansion plans for Milton Keynes, Newton Longville is slated to become the centre of a large district, known for planning purposes as the "Southern Expansion Area".
