Holman's Bridge

Aylesbury's first Charter of Incorporation in 1554 marked Holman's Bridge as the northernmost boundary of the town.

[2] After the battle the bodies of the dead were thrown into a common grave near the bridge.

In 1818 they were exhumed and their bones moved to a common grave in nearby Hardwick.

The housing development is controversially being built on the tract of land where the battle took place.

'Within are deposited the bones of 247 persons, who were discovered in AD 1818 buried in a field at Holman's Bridge near Aylesbury.
