Bow Brickhill is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England.〔(Parishes in Milton Keynes ) - Milton Keynes Council.〕 It is a short distance south east of Milton Keynes itself. The village name is a combination of Brythonic and Old English words for 'hill' (Brythonic: ''breg'', Anglo Saxon ''hyll''). The prefix 'Bow' comes from an Anglo Saxon personal name, ''Bolla''. The various names of the village given in historic records were ''Brichelle'' (11th century); ''Brichull'' (12th century); ''Bolle Brichulle'', ''Bellebrikhulle'' (13th century)., 〔('Parishes : Bow Brickhill' ) - Victoria History of the Counties of England A History of the County of Buckingham: Volume 4 (1927), pp. 289-293.

The church probably dates from the 12th century but heavy remodelling in the 15th century oblitered most of the earlier details. The church was extensively restored by Browne Willis in 1757.〔 The hymn tune ''Bow Brickhill'' by Sydney Nicholson was composed in honour of All Saints' parish church, after Nicholson and his choristers from Westminster Abbey performed there in 1923.
