Jordans Village Limited is a Social Co-Operative Society, responsible for the management and administration of Jordans Village in Buckinghamshire, England. Jordans Village takes its name from Old Jordans, the farmstead where Quaker farmers lived in the 17th century. The idea of creating a Village Estate at Jordans took definite shape in 1915-1916 when land became available and enabled Friends to fulfil a long-cherished wish to do something to preserve the surroundings of Jordans Meeting House, an area with a long Quaker history. Building began in 1919 and the Village dates its official founding as 15th February of that year, the day the commemorative bricks were laid on the foundations of the first house to be built. Jordans Village Ltd, which is a Friendly Society, was registered in the following year.
