Chesterton is a small rural parish in the historic district of Huntingdonshire, within the county of Cambridgeshire in England. It sits amid gently rolling arable farmland and hedgerow‑lined lanes, retaining a compact village feel rather than urban sprawl.
Historically its economy was agricultural and the built environment reflects that past with traditional cottages, farm buildings and a parish church at its heart; today many residents commute to nearby centres such as Huntingdon and Cambridge while the community remains focused on local events, countryside conservation and a quiet rural lifestyle.
