ONS Urban Sub-Areas
The Office for National Statistics has designated urban sub-areas called Walnut Tree and Browns Wood that are far bigger than the districts of that name. The Walnut Tree and Browns Wood urban sub-areas together approximate to that part of the former Newport Pagnell Rural District that is west of the River Ouzel and east of the M1.
The districts included in the Walnut Tree urban sub-area are Walton, Walnut Tree, Wavendon Gate, Walton Hall, Kents Hill, Brinklow, Monkston, Kingston, Middleton (Milton Keynes Village), Broughton, Northfield and Pineham. Browns Wood has a separate urban sub-area, presumably because it was a later phase of development.

Famous quotes containing the word urban:
“Commercial jazz, soap opera, pulp fiction, comic strips, the movies set the images, mannerisms, standards, and aims of the urban masses. In one way or another, everyone is equal before these cultural machines; like technology itself, the mass media are nearly universal in their incidence and appeal. They are a kind of common denominator, a kind of scheme for pre-scheduled, mass emotions.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–62)
