Newport Hundred was a hundred in the county of Buckinghamshire, England. It encompassed the north of the county, enclosed by the counties of Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire and the Buckinghamshire hundreds of Aylesbury and Buckingham. It was commonly known as "the three hundreds of Newport" because it amalgamated three earlier (11C) hundreds: Bonestou (or Bunsty), Moulsoe and Siglelai (or Seckley/Seckloe/Secklow). Its modern equivalent is the Borough of Milton Keynes, which covers almost exactly the same area (plus a little of the former Winslow Hundred, itself one of 18 ancient hundreds amalgamated under the administrative control of Cottesloe Hundred). History Until at least the time of the Domesday Survey in 1086 there were 18 hundreds in Buckinghamshire. It has been suggested however that neighbouring hundreds had already become more closely associated in the 11th century so that by the end of the 14th century the original or ancient hundreds had been consolidated into ...
