The Parish of Maids Moreton covers about 1365 acres, of which 376 are arable, 786 permanent grass and 26 woods and plantations. The soil is mostly clay and gravel and the subsoil gravel.
The village lies along the Buckingham to Towcester road (A413), a mile north-east of Buckingham. It contains many 17th-century houses and cottages of timber frames with brick or plaster filling and thatched roofs.
It has a 15th-century church, 'The Parish Of St Edmund', said to have been built by two maiden ladies of the Pever family, whence the name Maids' Moreton.
On the main A413 into Maids Moreton you will pass a few houses, a country vetinary surgery and a pub.
The old Post Office at the bottom of the village closed in the mid eighties and is now a house. The chapel (on the A413) was demolished in the early eighties and the allotments next to the chapel were all used for new housing.
