Loughton and Great Holm
The civil parish of Loughton and Great Holm includes the districts of Loughton, Great Holm, the National Bowl and Elfield Park, West Rooksley, Loughton Lodge, and Knowlhill in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. It is bordered by H4 Dansteed Way to the north, V4 Watling Street to the west, a tiny stretch of H8 Standing Way to the south, and the West Coast Main Line to the east. It was renamed from Loughton to Loughton and Great Holm in 2013 Loughton. Loughton is an ancient village and modern district. The village spreads between Watling Street and the  modern A5 road. It is to the west of, and about 1 mile from, Central Milton Keynes, with pedestrian access to Milton Keynes Central railway station. The original village has now been incorporated into the modern 'grid square' of Loughton. However much of the character of the old village remains; to the north-east of Bradwell Road the area bounded by School Lane and Church Lane contains the Church and remnants of the original parish of Great Loughton. To the south-west of Bradwell Road, around The Green there is a cluster of several sixteenth century buildings (Manor Farm, Manor  Farm Cottages and Cell Farm) which constitute the remains of the original parish of Little Loughton. Today Loughton is a mainly residential area but is also home to a large Equestrian Centre, in the grounds of which the medieval field pattern and fish pond can still be seen. The district is bounded by the A5 to the east, H5 Portway to the north, V4 Watling Street to the west and H6 Childs Way to the south. Great Holm. Great Holm is primarily a residential district and contains a high point overlooking much of the central area of Milton Keynes. The  MacIntyre Charity which provides support for people with learning disabilities has a care home in Great Holm and a large centre providing a variety of day time activities. They also run a popular coffee shop and bakery which is open to the public but provides supported employment for people with learning disabilities. Loughton Lodge. Loughton Lodge is a small area of Great Holm next to Loughton 'grid square' linked to Loughton by an underpass under which runs the old Bradwell Road and separated from the bulk of Great Holm by Lodge Lake (a balancing lake). Loughton Lodge is home to  the National Badminton Centre, health club, Girl Guides site and a small gated development of luxury apartments. This district is bordered by H4 Dansteed Way to the north, V4 Watling Street to the west, H5 Portway to the south and the A5 to the east. Knowlhill. Knowlhill is primarily an employment area with a large parkland alongside the A5. Much of this area is a flood plain of the Shenley Brook, and contains the "Teardrop Lakes" — small balancing lakes. In the late 1980s, Knowlhill was designated by Milton Keynes Development Corporation as being the industrial part of the "Energy Park
