Maids Moreton

Maids Moreton is a village in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located about a mile north of Buckingham with a population of around 500 people.

The parish of Maids Moreton covers about 1365 acres, of which 376 are arable, 786 permanent grass and 26 woods and plantations. The soil is mostly clay and gravel and the subsoil gravel.

The village lies along the Buckingham to Towcester road (A413). It contains many 17th century houses and cottages of timber frames with brick or plaster filling and thatched roofs.

It has a 15th century church dedicated to St Edmund, said to have been built by two maiden ladies of the Pever family, whence the name Maids' Moreton.

The old Post Office at the bottom of the village closed in the mid 1980s and is now a house. The chapel (on the A413) was demolished in the early 1980s and the allotments next to the chapel were all used for new housing.

In 1847, George Lipscomb listed the following Rectors for Maids Moreton:
