Oakington is a village with a population of 1.300 inhabitants located in the local government district of South Cambridgeshire in the Cambridgeshire County. This village is often visited by the residents of the city of Cambridge because it is located just 4 miles away. Oakington village belongs to the parish of Oakington and Westwick.
It is believed that the Oakington began to develop in the Roman period because it was located only a mile from the famous Via Devana road. This Roman road ran from Colchester to Chester. The old parish of Oakington spread through 690 hectares. It was separated from the village of Dry Drayton with the Via Devana road. The Beck stream divided this parish from Westwick and the fields from the village of Longstanton and Girton.
This village was known as Hochinton and it was mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. The etymology of its name suggests that Oakington was a termed used to describe an estate of a man called Hocca. Another interesting thing about Oakington from the ancient period is the presence of Anglo-Saxon burials near the village church. In the 19th century many residents decided to migrate to Australia and this is also the period when the Oakington railway station was opened (it was closed in 1970). During the World War 2 a bomber airfield was constructed in Oakington.
