Vicarage Court is one of four vicarages known to have existed in Hanslope. The Old Manor, off the Green and visible across the Pond, is believed at one time to have been the first. After that The Old Vicarage, also off the Green, was used until the 1890s. Both of these are next to the Churchyard.

Vicarage Court was built in the 1890s, when the Vicar of Hanslope must have had a large family and needed a larger house. It ceased to be a vicarage in the 1950s, when the current Vicarage was built next to it in its grounds. The two are shown together in this photograph taken from the church tower.

"Every year was the Hospital fete; there were parades and the fair used to come in the field where Western Drive is. There used to be a big swing boat and a boxing booth. They used to offer anybody money to go and box. The church village fetes were held in the vicarage grounds"

Vicarage Court was modernised and changed into flats in the 1990s.

If you continue South for half a mile out of the village towards Milton Keynes you come to Hanslope Park, site of The Hanslope Park Tragedy.

The trail turns back past the Village Pond, turning right after the Green past Maltings Farmhouse on the corner. The photograph below, dating from about 1914 when the house was still thatched , shows the then owner and his sister with their housekeeper. This is one of the oldest houses in the village, with the date 1624 set in stone on the front.
