The affix "Longville" was added in the 13th century after the Cluniac priory of Longueville, Calvados, in Normandy, France, that held the manor of Newton at that time, and to distinguish this village from other places called Newton, particularly nearby Newton Blossomville.
As well as Bedford many Italian families also settled in Bletchley to work in its Newton Longville factory.
