context_page_description: Hinxton is a village in South Cambridgeshire, England.
  The River Cam runs through the village, as does the Cambridge to Liverpool Street railway, though the village has no station. Hinxton parish's southern boundaries form the border between Cambridgeshire and Essex. The village is five miles north-west of Saffron Walden and nine miles south of Cambridge. The 2001 population was 315.
  Hinxton is the home of the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, which includes the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and the European Bioinformatics Institute.
context_section_description: The flint and brick building lies at the heart of the village, and dates back to Victorian times. Its community role began when the oldest part of the hall was opened as a reading room for villagers, a place to meet and keep up with the news and share books. Generations of Hinxton residents have cared for the building and over the last five years it has undergone a programme of sympathetic updating – to combine the best of traditional village life with modern amenities. 
  The village hall is in the High Street, next to the recreation ground. It can be hired for family parties, business and commercial events.
