  • Fishermead is named after a field called Fishers Mead. The fishing theme is continued in the street naming. All of the streets are named after Cornish fishing villages. There are two schools in the area, The Willows (formerly Newlyn Place) first school and Jubilee Wood School (formed by the amalgamation of Penwith first school and Meadfurlong middle school in 2012). Fishermead is known for its many trees and parks, with several local shops including a Co-op and three fast-food vans.
    The townscape in Fishermead is characterised by rectangular blocks of 100-150 metres in length, backing onto shared "garden squares".

      Yup, it's pretty tired looking. I've lived in Milton Keynes for over 40 years, and as a kid, I had a lot of friends in lived in Fishermead. The houses are very spacious, close to the shopping mall etc. But over the years, they've become rentals, and no one takes pride in their house anymore. It just seems normal to dump rubbish outside your front door and expect it to just disappear.
