Bierton

Bierton is a village in Buckinghamshire, England about half a mile north of the town of Aylesbury. The mainly farming parish is 10 km² in size. The parish church is dedicated to St James. The village name was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Bortone and means "farmstead near a stronghold" in modern English. The hamlets of Broughton, Broughton Crossing and Burcott lie within the parish boundary. Today with Aylesbury growing at the rate that it is, the village is at risk of becoming a suburb of the larger town. All that separates the two presently is a field of allotments about a hundred yards wide, owned by Bierton with Broughton Parish Council.
