Girton, Cambridgeshire

Girton is a village of about 1,600 households, and 4,500 people in Cambridgeshire, England. It lies about two miles to the northwest of Cambridge, and is the home of Cambridge University's Girton College, a pioneer in women's education, which was moved there from a previous site in Hertfordshire in 1872.
Listed as ''Grittune'' in around 1060 and ''Grittune'' in the Domesday Book, the village's name is derived from the Old English ''grēot + tūn'' meaning "farmstead or village on gravelly ground", as the settlement was formed on a gravel ridge.〔A. D. Mills, ''A Dictionary of British Place-Names'' (2003)〕
==History==
Girton has a long history, and has been home to a poor settlement for thousands of years. The parish lies on the Via Devana, the Roman road, and a cemetery with at least 225 burials between the second century A.D. and the early Anglo Saxon period was found near to Girton College in 1880. In addition, traces of agriculture from the late Bronze Age and Roman period were found to the north of the village in 1975. A selection of Saxon items are stored in the collection of Girton College.
