Harlton is a small village and civil parish in the district of South Cambridgeshire, in the county of Cambridgeshire in England, lying a short drive from the city of Cambridge. It sits in the region’s characteristic patchwork of arable fields and hedgerow-lined lanes, making it a quiet rural spot that nevertheless feels close to the amenities of the city.
The village has a clearly historic core with a medieval parish church and a number of listed buildings, reflecting its long rural past; agriculture has traditionally dominated the local economy, while today many residents commute to nearby towns for work. Social life is typical of a small English village, centred on local events, the village hall and countryside footpaths, and there is local interest in conservation and the surrounding landscape.
