Ickleton is a small historic village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, lying a few miles south of Cambridge and close to the Essex border near Duxford. Set among gently rolling arable countryside, it retains a compact street pattern of timber‑framed and brick houses and sits within easy commuting distance of the city while still feeling distinctly rural.
The village has a long history - including the site of a medieval nunnery and a medieval parish church - and several listed buildings and earthworks that reflect that past. Today Ickleton blends agriculture and small local businesses with an active community life, village events and pubs, and benefits from nearby attractions such as the Imperial War Museum at Duxford.
