Blakelands is a residential and industrial area situated in North Milton Keynes. The name Blakelands is Anglo-Saxon for Bleak lands.The themes of the street names in Blakelands
The Anglo-Saxons were pagans when they came to Britain. They worshipped gods of nature and held springs, wells, rocks, and trees in reverence. Religion was not a source of spiritual revelation, it was a means of ensuring success in material things. For example, you might pray to a particular goddess for a successful harvest, or for victory in battle. A few of the main Anglo-Saxon gods were Tiw, Wodin (Odin), Thor, and Friya, whose names are remembered in our days of the week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
On the estate is one of many balancing lakes in Milton keynes Tongwell Lake is surrounded by parkland and is home to many species of wildlife. Situated off the H3 Monks Way, the redway runs around one side of it. There is an island in the centre of the lake which is a haven for birds. There are many species of birds at the lake including ducks, moorhens, herons, swans, and canadian geese.
The Lake is used for water skiing by the Milton Keynes water ski club. There is a play are to the North West corner of the lake which has swings, slide and a gazebo seating area.
