Heritage MK is a consortium of heritage organisations in
Milton Keynes. Committed to working together to help the
residents and visitors of Milton Keynes connect with the history
of the UK's most successful new town. Although the new town itself
is only half a century old, there is a rich history of people
living in the area of the city, from the Victorians to the Romans
and even the Stone-Age. Promoting this rich history is the work
that the member organisations of Heritage MK specialise in.
Heritage MK is made up of:
- Bletchley Park (Discover the home of the code
breakers who were instrumental in winning the Second World War)
- City Discovery Centre (Learn about Romans,
Anglo-Saxons and more, or take a tour to learn about the development of the new town)
- Cowper and Newton Museum (Visit the Georgian
houses where the beloved poet William Cowper lived and where John
Newton wrote Amazing Grace)
- Living Archive MK (An
organisation that collects, preserves and shares the heritage of
Milton Keynes)
- Milton Keynes Museum (Explore life in
Milton Keynes throughout the ages)
