Guilden Morden is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, sitting in gently rolling countryside close to the county boundary with Hertfordshire and neighbouring Steeple Morden. The landscape is characterised by arable fields and hedgerows, with a compact village core of stone and thatch, a medieval parish church and a strong village community centred on local events and clubs.
Historically the village is notable for finds from the Anglo‑Saxon period, including the famous little boar figurine discovered locally and now in museum collections, and its history is reflected in surviving architecture and field patterns. Economically it remains linked to agriculture but many residents commute to nearby Royston, Cambridge and even London, giving it a mix of rural character and commuter convenience.
