Campbell Park is a civil parish in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England. The parish is bounded by Childs Way (H6) to the north, the River Ouzel to the east, the A5 to the west, and Chaffron Way to the south. The parish includes the § Fishermead, § Newlands, § Oldbrook, § Springfield, § Winterhill, Willen and The Woolstones grid-squares. The parish was originally known as Woolstone-cum-Willen,[2] and was formed on 1 April 1934 as a merger of Great Woolstone, Little Woolstone and Willen.[3] The parish was part of Newport Pagnell Rural District until the latter became part of the Borough of Milton Keynes in 1974.[3] The parish was redefined in 2012, when the districts of Campbell Park (sic), Newlands and Willen were reallocated to other parishes. Despite the loss of its eponymous district, the Parish Council continues to use its name. As of December 2022, the parish council is consulting on changing its name (to "Secklow Community Council").[4]
