- "Olney (/ˈoʊni/, rarely /ˈɒlni/ OL-nee) is a market town and civil parish in the Borough of Milton Keynes in Buckinghamshire, England. At the 2011 Census, it had a population of around 6,500 people. It lies on the River Great Ouse, very close to the borders of Buckinghamshire with Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire, and equidistant from Northampton, Bedford and Milton Keynes. It is accessed by the M1 at Junction 14 (approximately 7 miles (11 km)), with the closest passenger rail service at Wolverton (approximately 8 miles (13 km) distant), and Milton Keynes Central and Bedford railway stations (each approximately 12 miles (19 km) distant). It is a popular tourist destination, perhaps best known for the Olney Pancake Race and for the Olney Hymns by William Cowper and John Newton." - (en.wikipedia.org 13.12.2020)
