Emberton is a village and civil parish in the unitary authority area of the City of Milton Keynes, in Buckinghamshire, England.[2] The village is near the borders with Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire, just to the south of Olney, 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Newport Pagnell, and 7 miles (11 km) north-east of Central Milton Keynes.
The parish of Emberton was formed from three villages that were annexed together for ecclesiastical purposes in 1650: Petsoe, Ekeney and Emberton. Today nothing remains of Ekeney and Petsoe only exists as a hamlet called Petsoe End.[3]
The village name is an Old English word and means Eanbeorht's Farm. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was called Ambretone;[4] in manorial records of 1227 it was Emberdestone, and by the fourteenth century it was Embirtone.[4]
In the twelfth century, the manor was owned by the Paynel (sic) family of Newport Pagnell.[4] The parish church is dedicated to All Saints.[5]
Although there are no shops in the village, there is a village pub called the Bell and Bear on the site of the old Bell Inn. The former Bear Inn was previously situated near Petsoe where the A509 now runs.[6]
