Summary

Castlethorpe is a village and civil parish with a population of about 1000 in the Borough of Milton Keynes (ceremonial county of Buckinghamshire), England. It lies about three miles north-east of Stony Stratford, four miles north-west of Newport Pagnell and seven miles north of Central Milton Keynes. It is separated from the county of Northamptonshire by the River Tove.

The village is relatively more recent than those around it, and it started out in life as a castle belonging to the lord of the manor of nearby Hanslope. A settlement of servants and manual workers grew up around the castle and this became the village of Castlethorpe (thorpe is an Old Norse language (particularly Danish) word for homestead, and it is not unreasonable to assume that there may well have been a Danish settlement nearby as the area was, if not part of, certainly close to, the Danelaw). The castle was damaged in 1215 in a feud between Foulkes de Brent, who had been sent by King John (John of England), and William Mauduit, the castle's owner. Mauduit was reputedly in rebellion against the King. Although Mauduit returned to claim his seat after the King's death, the castle was demolished shortly afterward. All that is left today are the grassy mounds of the former Motte-and-Bailey castle.
