History of Milton Keynes : ウィキペディア英語版 | History of Milton Keynes
This history of Milton Keynes details its development from the earliest human settlements, through the plans for a 'new city' for 250,000 people in south central England, its subsequent urban design and development, to the present day. (Milton Keynes is a large town〔Although Milton Keynes was specified to be a city in scale and the term "city" is used locally (''inter alia'' to avoid confusion with its constituent towns), formally this title cannot be used. This is because conferment of city status in the United Kingdom is a Royal prerogative.〕 in South East England, founded in 1967). == Overview ==
On 23 January 1967 when the formal new town designation order was made,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/44233/pages/827 ).〕 the ,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MK Council General Statistics. )〕 area to be developed was largely farmland and undeveloped villages. Before construction began, every area was subject to detailed archaeological investigation: doing so has exposed a rich history of human settlement since Neolithic times and has provided a unique insight into the history of a large sample of the landscape of north Buckinghamshire. From its establishment in 1967 to its abolition in 1992, the Milton Keynes Development Corporation created by far the largest and most ambitious of the British new towns: indeed its objective was to build a new city of 250,000 people. Many of Britain's most acclaimed building and landscape architects contributed to what was to be a show-piece of British design. Unlike previous new towns, Milton Keynes has a preponderance of privately funded development but these developments were subject to an exacting design brief in line with the design principles laid out in ''The Plan for Milton Keynes''.
