We read a few days ago on the MKFM website  about a poetry competition that caught our attention:
Three authors at a Tattenhoe school have been crowned winners in a local poetry competition launched by housebuilder Keepmoat.
Priory Rise Primary School pupils, situated just 500 yards from Keepmoat’s new development Haworth Place in Tattenhoe Park, were challenged to write poems about living in Milton Keynes and the importance of being safe near building sites. (...)
The appropriate task came as Milton Keynes gets set to welcome 53,000 new homes to the area by 2050.
Haworth Place was named in honour of the birthplace of literary greats the Bronte sisters, and the poetry task links strongly with the estate’s variety of literature honoured through street names including Wilde Grove, Beckett Street, Joyce Lane and Bronte Avenue.

What interested us was, of course, this new development called Haworth Place in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. The development was named in honour of the birthplace of the Brontë sisters, and features literature-themed street names including Wilde Grove, Beckett Street, Joyce Lane and Brontë Avenue.

We wanted to know more about this Haworth Place, so we checked the Keepmoat website. The development offers 3-4 bedroom homes from £424,995 in central Milton Keynes, part of the area's expansion plans to welcome 53,000 new homes by 2050. The site mentions excellent transport links, including rail connections to London Euston in as little as 32 minutes, and notes that Priory Rise Primary School is right on the doorstep.
