Milton Keynes granted city status

Milton Keynes has finally won city status at the fourth time of asking.

The civic honour has been granted to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee this year.

Milton Keynes have previously applied for city status in 2000, 2000 and in 2012.

They used a delivery robot to send the documents, cited its 27 conservation areas, 50 scheduled monuments, 1,100 listed buildings and 270 pieces of public art.

The Cabinet Office said the town was the "pinnacle of the national post-war planning movement, rebuilding the nation and accommodating its growing population".
