Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Caxton is a small rural village in the East of England region and the county Cambridgeshire in the United Kingdom. It is about 13 miles to the west of Cambridge.

In 2004 a bypass was completed around Caxton to accommodate the newly built Cambourne to the north, allowing vehicles to avoid using the busy A1198. The A1198 is a Roman road and is very straight.

Caxton is most famous for the Caxton Gibbet. There are many old tales of people being hung on it as a punishment, then buried nearby.

A small stream called Bourn Brook runs through Caxton, eventually joining the River Cam.

Caxton has two churches, Caxton Baptist Church (built 1842), and the Church of St Andrew.

In 1881 the population was 129, and in 1921 the population had grown to 398.
