Tattenhoe

Tattenhoe and Tattenhoe Park are adjacent districts of Milton Keynes, England, in the ancient parish of Tattenhoe. It is located at the south-western edge of the city, not far from the ruins of Snelshall Priory. It contains Howe Park Wood, a Site of Special Scientific Interest and one of England's few remaining primeval woodlands (though certainly coppiced) and home to a wide variety of wildlife, notably Odonata.
The village was abandoned in the 16th century and had its own moated manor house and church (1540, perhaps 12th century). By the time redevelopment began, it consisted of just three farms and St. Giles's Church, but was recognised as a village (rather than a hamlet) because it had its own ecclesiastical parish.
In January 2006, the Haredim community of Stamford Hill (London) considered establishing a new settlement at Tattenhoe Park, but decided against it.
The Village also has the Tattenhoe Sports Pavilion, which is run by InspireAll (formerly Hertsmere Leisure) in partnership with the Milton Keynes Council. They offer the temporary home of Westcroft Library, as well as a lounge area next to the cafe and bar on site. The pavilion also has legacy playing fields, an astro turf available for hire, a meeting room available for hire and free parking on site.
The Local Councillors for the Tattenhoe Ward are Cllr Anthony Brown (Lab), Cllr James Lancaster (Con) and Cllr Gerald Small (Con)
Its name is an Old English language word meaning 'Tatta's spur of land'. The village was first recorded (in the 12th century) as 'Thateo'; the village has also been known as "Tattenho", "Totenho" (13th century); "Tottynho" (16th-17th century); "Tattenhall" (18th-19th century) and was given as "Tottenhoe" in Magna Britannia (1806).
Civil parish.
