Croxton is a very small rural civil parish in the district of South Cambridgeshire in Cambridgeshire, England. It is largely farmland with a handful of houses and farmsteads; its roots go back to the medieval period and the parish contains modest historic features such as an old church and a few listed buildings and earthworks that hint at earlier settlement.
Economically the area remains agricultural, though many people commute to nearby towns and Cambridge for work, and socially life is quiet and close‑knit with residents relying on neighbouring villages for shops, pubs and schools. The parish’s quiet lanes and open views across the fen‑edge landscape make it valued more for tranquillity and heritage than for local amenities.
