Whitehouse is a neighbourhood and civil parish that covers a large new development area on the western flank of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. As the first tier of Local Government, its community council is responsible for the people, living and working in this area of Milton Keynes.
It is bounded by Calverton Lane (the Monks Way (H3) alignment) to the north, Watling Street (V4) to the east, Dansteed Way (H4) to the south and, as of October 2022[update], a hedgerow line[b] to the west.[1] The district covers 228 hectares (560 acres) (including open space) and is projected to have 4,400 homes and 6.5 hectares (16 acres) of employment land.[2]
The (greenfield) land it occupies was previously part of Whitehouse Farm, then part of Calverton parish.[3] In 2004, the Government decided on the further expansion of Milton Keynes and accordingly designated land on the eastern and western flanks of the city for this purpose.[4] Along with the adjacent parish of Fairfields (and Broughton on the eastern flank), this district is part of the implementation of that decision.
In addition to Whitehouse Farm, the development area also includes part of the lands of the former Shenley Dens farm.[5] The farmhouse still exists and is a Grade II listed building,[6] just outside the edge of the current (2023) development area but within the parish boundary.
There are two other farms in the south-west of the parish, Shenley Grounds Farm and Weald Leys Farm.[5] As of November 2023[update], both are outside the development area.
The Parish falls within the Stony Stratford Ward of the City of Milton Keynes.
There are three schools in the parish, two primary schools and one secondary school: Whitehouse Primary School,[7] Watling Primary School,[8] and Watling Academy, a secondary school.[9]
