Warboys is a large village and civil parish in the Huntingdonshire district of Cambridgeshire, England,[2] 7 miles (11 km) north-east of Huntingdon.

[3] Warboys is a large parish and a village on what was the eastern side of Huntingdonshire bordering on Cambridgeshire.

[9] The Domesday Book does not explicitly give the population of a place, but it records that there were 48 households at Warboys.

[9] The tax assessment in the Domesday Book was known as geld or danegeld, and was a type of land-tax based on the hide or ploughland.

The village lies on high ground in the south-west part of the parish overlooking the fen to the north-east.

There are three or four old cottages in the village, including the White Hart Inn on the north side of the High Street – a 17th century brick house with a thatched roof.

In 1996 an electrical fault caused the roof to catch fire, destroying the top storey of the building.

In 1795, an Act was passed for dividing, enclosing and draining the open common fields in Warboys.

A local landmark is the clock tower, built in 1887 to celebrate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria on the throne.

Much witch-related iconography can be found in the village, including part of the emblem of the local primary school.

[12] The traditional dialect of Warboys recorded in the SED was characterised by a 'Canadian raising' type alternation in the vowel of the PRICE lexical set.

A parish council is responsible for providing and maintaining a variety of local services including allotments and a cemetery; grass cutting and tree planting within public open spaces such as a village green or playing fields.

For Warboys the highest tier of local government is Cambridgeshire County Council, which has administration buildings in Cambridge.

Prior to the 2023 boundary review, Warboys was part of North West Cambridgeshire and represented in parliament by Shailesh Vara.

Warboys Youth Action is a charity established in 1993 and exists to promote the moral, physical and spiritual well-being of those between 11 and 18 years of age who live in the parish.

With a reputation as the provider of a youth club which was housed in part of the old school at the rear of the library.

The chancel arch, the responds at each end of the north aisle and a small piece of walling at the south-west corner of the nave of this church still survive.

The chancel was rebuilt and shortened before the beginning of the 19th century and, in 1832, it was extended eastwards apparently to its original length and considerably altered.

At this date large galleries were erected in both aisles and the tower, the floor being lowered a foot to give headroom under them.

From 2007 to 2010 further reordering took place with the interior to assist the worship to be more flexible and to give more opportunity for the building to be more versatile and comfortable.

The 1927 pews were removed, in 2007, to be replaced by moveable chairs, the organ was overhauled and restored and moved to a new location to the west of the north door.
