Emberton

Emberton is a village in the county of Milton Keynes in England, though until 1995 it was in north Buckinghamshire. The village is near the border with Northamptonshire, just to the south of Olney and four miles north of Newport Pagnell.

The parish of Emberton is actually made up of 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 by the name of Petsoe Manor.

The village name is Anglo Saxon and means Eanbeorht's Farm. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was called Ambretone; in manorial records of 1227 it was Emberdestone.

The manor was previously owned by the Pagnell family of Newport Pagnell. The parish church is dedicated to All Saints.
