Berryfields is a Major Development Area (MDA) to the north-west of Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England.[1] It is one of two new major housing projects in Aylesbury, the other being Weedon Hill, adjacent and to the east.[2] It is intended that these two areas will provide 5,000 new homes between them by 2021.[3]

The housing development being built at Weedon Hill has formed its own civil parish of Buckingham Park and Berryfields has been a civil parish since 2015.

Transport

A new railway station, Aylesbury Vale Parkway opened on 14 December 2008, ready to serve the new housing.[4] The Western Link Road, connecting the A41 and the A418, was originally scheduled to open in March 2009; it eventually opened in 2014.

A Redline bus service connects Berryfields to Aylesbury town centre.
