Milton is a village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, lying just north‑east of Cambridge beside the River Cam. Its good road and cycle links to the city make it a popular commuter settlement while still retaining a village feel around the medieval parish church of St Andrew's.
The area blends traditional village life with the high‑tech economy nearby - the boundary with the Cambridge Science Park brings offices and a professional population - and leisure green space: Milton Country Park occupies former gravel lakes and is valued for walking, birdwatching and family activities. Local pubs, shops and community events help maintain a strong social fabric despite rapid change in the wider Cambridge area.
