Warboys is a village and civil parish in the district of Huntingdonshire, in Cambridgeshire, England. Set on the edge of the Fenland, it has traditionally been an agricultural community; former clay and peat workings nearby have left lakes and wildlife-rich spots around the village.
The village retains a historic core centred on its medieval parish church and several listed buildings, and is also remembered for an early-modern witchcraft case that drew wider attention. Today Warboys functions as a local service centre with shops, pubs and a primary school, and many residents commute to nearby towns such as Huntingdon, Peterborough and Cambridge while enjoying easy access to Fenland countryside and birdlife.
