Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Calverton is a civil parish in the Borough of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England and just outside Milton Keynes itself. The parish consists of three hamlets: Upper Weald, Middle Weald and Lower Weald, of which Lower Weald is the largest, contains the Manor Farm, parish church and former parochial school. It is assumed by many people to be Calverton.

The village name is Old English, and means 'farm where calves are reared'. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was recorded as Calvretone.

The west side of nearby Stony Stratford was once included with the ecclesiastic parish of Calverton (the east side being in Wolverton), though an Act of Parliament in the 18th century separated them.

The parish of Calverton was part of Stratford and Wolverton rural district from 1894 to 1919, when the rural district became an urban district, subsequently renamed Wolverton urban district in 1920. The area was re-established as a separate parish in 2001.

The parish church is dedicated to All Saints.
